things i've learned...

have you ever had a pedicure? a manicure and a pedicure at the same time... they take a LONG time. even for the PROFESSIONALS. my heels have been crusty for too long... even one professional pedicure doesn't cut it. this flip flop wearin', pool goin', momma of many, has feet that are in need of daily attention. i FINALLY found a system that works. i take Mr Pummice and that Sally Hansen acid stuff with me into the shower, i apply and scrub... daily... or bi-weekly... and, my feet are smooth. yup, it takes time, but for me, it's worth it. you know, i learned the same thing about my relationship with my husband. we need to take more time for each other... just co-raising our children doesn't cut it. a dinner out now and then is nice, but not enough. i need daily scrubbing and "relationship callous acid" and weekends to reconnect. it may not always be like that. but for now, this flip-flop wearin', pool goin', momma of many... needs time with my man. i have learned... it's worth it!

Oh, that's so sweet. I can't even imagine a day let alone a weekend without kids. We did get away last year for our anniversary but that was just overnight and we had Aimee with us. I'm glad you guys got some time to reconnect. I totally agree about the time needed with hubby. Matt and I need more of that time. And, I'll have to try some of that stuff for my crusty heels, too :)
