Single Mom Life - One-On-One Time

As a single mom, and one who works a lot of hours, quality time with each boy is tough. Plus, they are at the age where friends are pretty important in their minds. I'm pretty blessed! I have boys who ASK to spend time with me! Like, they want to!!! I know, weird!

Jackson had mentioned a while ago that he might want to get a pedicure. Uh... DONE! So, I made an appointment on Saturday for he and I to get a little love. Beyond Spa is fantastic. They are SO reasonably priced and they do a great job! We spent a half hour in the B lounge, drinking cider and eating cheesecake, frozen grapes, chocolate, and cheese and crackers while our feet soaked. Then, we went back to the pedicure room, where they fed us sorbet (divine!!). Jackson was in heaven! He absolutely loved everything about it. The cute girl doing his was like, "So, do you think you'll be back??" Jackson, "Uhhh, HECK YEAH!!!!"

Then, we went and ran errands together. I am in love with my boys. They are funny, smart, kind, and just so much fun! I love spending time with them individually, even if it's just going grocery shopping. They are just my favorite people in the world.

With this being Jackson's last year of school, I am feeling rushed. I feel rushed to just eat them up every second I have. I just want to soak my babies in. I am so grateful for one-on-one time with each of them. We don't have money, People. So, sitting and watching a movie or playing a game or making dinner, or going to the grocery store, or just walking home from church with one of them - that all counts!!
