Date #7


The day before our mother-son date, I learned that I had accidentally let my driver's license expire! Jonas had to be really creative and plan an outing that did not depend on a car! We walked to a nearby McDonalds (2.5 miles) and rented a Redbox movie. He also had a large vanilla milkshake. We walked and talked all the way home too. That night we tried to watch Captain America on our Clearplay DVD player, but the filter wouldn't download (I am techno-deficient after all...) We watched that one with Bob when he came home the next day and was able to figure out my computer issues.



I have really loved spending this one on one time with the kids.
I totally recommend it, no matter the age!

It is a terrific idea and well worth the time. It was good of Jonas to be creative and have a walking date. What a good kid and a swell mom.

I really need to do this. Good improvising...I'd be up a creek if we couldn't drive, I don't think there's much within a reasonable walking distance.
