Time to Get Away

I was thinking of some reasons why it is a good thing to get away.

• quiet time to think
• uninterrupted adult conversation with my husband
• meals that don't include manners lessons or cutting up food
• beautiful mountains and scenery at a lake house
  
• warm, cozy fires
• time to plan for the year
• opportunity to appreciate what God has given me in my children and husband
• weekend date with my sweetheart
• my kids get quality time with their Nana
• time to be refreshed as a mom and teacher
• time to plan how better to invest in my kids' lives
• chance to beat my hubby in Scrabble (maybe)
• opportunity to sleep in without an alarm
• time for my husband to step away from the stress of work
• something to look forward to every year
