The scene: Sunday night family dinner.
The Players; Me, Scott, Izzy, Ben, Livi and my "ex" who has surprised us with an impromtu visit.
At Sunday night dinners we cook together, eat together and gear up for the week ahead. It's one tradition that's really important to me - and a something I hope will build memories for all of us.
We finish dinner and I'm about to get the kids ready for bed.
"WHO WANTS TO GO FOR FROZEN YOGURT?" Asks my ex.
"MEEEEEEE!!!!!!" The kids say in unison. Ice cream on Sunday night means sugar rush and a late night.
I give him my best combination "exhale and glare."
"I can see why you guys got divorced..." says Livi. She's 6, but she's observant.
I don't think we all laughed that hard together in over 2 years.
I guess you never know what's going to make Family Dinner memorable.
Wrote on the wrong comment line. Sorry. I even posted it twice. duh.
ReplyDeleteKids don't miss much do they? The Sunday meal thing is a great idea. We usually try to throw something quick together so that we can relax a little together, but I may rethink this now...
ReplyDeleteAwesome.
