Nomination Form, Please.

Tobe has decided to start 2008 off with a bang...

This evening, after the children were tucked snugly in their beds, Tobe surprised me with an evening of relaxation to myself.

There is nothing more precious to a mother of young children than time to herself. Seriously. Offer a mommy $5oo or a chance to have two hours to herself....I promise she will take the two hours every single time.

My evening began with a warm shower, lit by candles, and then I was provided fresh, warm towels out of the dryer after I had completely bathed myself in all the new lotions and potions I received for Christmas. Tobe made a Sonic run to get me my Route 44 of choice. The laptop is all set up in our bed, ready to play the latest chick flick for me while I lounge in peace. (And while Tobe watches play-off football in the other room.)

I must find that "Husband of the Year" nomination form...


I bid you farewell, as I am off to watch my movie in my cozy PJs while drinking the world's largest Diet Dr. Pepper by myself. Life is good.

That's a good night! I savor solitude at times. Hope it was a good one!

Yeah for you and "SUPER HUBBY!" Way to go. You are so right... who needs money, just some peace and quiet with no one "hanging" on you! Enjoy for time flies :)
