You know how parenthood instantly turns you into a baby-toting, stroller/diaper bag lugging, lights on at 6am, lights out at 10pm, say no to anything happening after 8pm, goodbye spontaneity loving person?
Well Tuesday morning, I received this email..
Then 4 hours later, I received this email..
Welcome back, spontaneity – Chris and I are going to Paris!
This was by far one of the quickest travel decisions we’ve ever made – like in just a few hours we managed to determine when we’d go, for how long, whether the price was truly attractive enough, and most importantly, who would take care of Madison. Let's just say I didn't get a whole lot of work done that morning... shh, don't tell the boss. But locking down a vacation and having something big to look forward to was something I needed to feel that hadn't been felt in a long time. Don’t get me wrong, I’m gonna miss the pants off my little mini – but, as an 8-month old parent I think it’s important to remember that it’s okay to take some time off to enjoy various facets of life that was pre-kids. So without hesitation the mister and I will be doing just that. Paris, nous voici!
