    I love traditions!!! One that I started when my three kids were small was “mom and me days”. Having more than one child means splitting your time and energy between them and that gets hard. So when they were younger and started school I decided to make special days with them where they could actually MISS a day of school (gasp and I was a school teacher! ????) and just me and that one child of mine would spend the entire day together. It could be something elaborate like a day at a theme park or something as simple as a McDonalds lunch and a couple hours at different play grounds. They grew to love these days and although it was only a few times a year for each of them (outside of the regular days when it was me and all three of them doing things while their dad worked etc) they all really loved these days. My oldest is now 21 and my youngest is 15 and they STILL love days with just me and them….and still will refer to them as Mom and Me days. ????

      OH I LOVE this!!!! This is such a great idea! My mom would do the same thing, wake me up and let me know I would miss school to do something special with her… BUT to have a teacher as a mom and to be able to miss school… that’s even MORE special!!! Oh my gosh and especially to get one on one time with your mom without your siblings AND miss school, that’s like a triple treat!!! I love the way you create that time and make it special whether they are going to the theme parks and really going all out OR making it special by “park hopping” and McDonalds! Some days those days are even more special because the focus is totally on the time they get to spend with you!! I’m going to write this down so I can remember this for when my little one is older!!!
      Thanks for sharing this Tammy!!!
