Watching my guys fishing in the rain
Quietly reading on the dock under the rainfall
The perfect rainbow
Weather doesn’t matter
Making something simple for dinner
Everybody Happy
Deciding to go to bed early (midnight that is)
Getting in our pyjamas and walking through the cedar path
with flashlights
Smelling the sweet scent of pine
Covering the little bed in the tent with our three
favorite blankets; one from when I was a child and two from the old cottage
Lighting candles beside our “bed”
Chatting about our day (the same day as the last 17 days
really of doing a whole lot of nothing)
Falling into each other’s arms in the moonlight
Feeling in love
Going for a little swim under the stars
Falling asleep with the gentle wind on our faces and our
bodies warm and cozy
Waking up to a family of 8 ducks in the sunlight
Swimming as we wake up for a long time even before his
morning coffee
Him snorkeling and me floating both together
Wishing it could last forever
Trekking upstairs to the house in our PJ’s to fetch milk,
coffee and warm cinnamon buns
Being able to have this time together even with three
kids
Realizing life is sweet on some days
Both feeling like it was the perfect day
(if I had not lost my temper and called my husband an
idiot for leaving the keys in the car ignition and burning the battery of the
car and preventing me from being able to go do my errands before my gang of 15
arrived the next day-it would have been absolutely perfect.
(We settled for almost.)
