While Mommy is Gone Away, the Kiddos Come Out to Play

By Thepracticalmommy2 @PracticalMommy2

Friday night: Mommy is out for a haircut tonight. It hasn't happened in a while, but it was so necessary. The holidays are fast approaching and the 'do' is now a 'don't'.

The kids are home with Daddy. You know what that means: extra fun TV, extra snacks, extra fun. All well and good. The kids need to spend time with their hard working dad, who is often so tired when he gets home at night after a long day.

Sigh. There will be a lot of toys spread about in mismatched disorder. There will be empty sippy cups. There will be tired kids ready for bed...

And that's great. Why? Mommy is by herself, in a quiet space, inhaling the sweet spa aromas that fill her salon....
