3 Margaritas Restaurant at Southlands
Aurora Colorado
Well Happy Belated Valentine’s Day. It was just a few days ago, and we enjoyed it immensely.
If you are like our household you probably shared the candy and sweet sentiments not only with your spouse but with your children too. Your kids ate up most of the delicious chocolate covered strawberries that were for you and they watched your face as you sweetly discovered your beautiful bouquet.
Although our boys, especially Ace, are also mindful and very thoughtful about Valentines day and making it priority to reach out to someone and secure a valentine, this day along with 364 others have the same feel. Which is “WHAT ABOUT ME?!” This got us thinking about the importance of highlighting the uniqueness of the marriage bond to our boys. Yes, every one of us in the family is important and loved beyond measure, but we feel it important for them to see that Mommy and Daddy like to hold each others hand, receive a forehead kiss or even an occasional dance!
In seeing this hopefully they will feel comfortable sharing and expressing love and tenderness with their mates one day. We are so often the uber driver, teacher, coach and friend to them that as parents we forget to show them that we are human and have feelings, wishes, hobbies, and goals of our own outside of theirs.
Well no one has the roadmap to perfect parenting and we all definitely make mistakes, but here’s one thing that we have to share with no apologies, and that is on this Glorious day of Valentines Day 2022, our boys at Hot Dogs and we shared the most amazing meal and experience at 3 Margaritas restaurant in Aurora Co!!!
And we did not feel a pinch of guilt with our platters! So while you are focusing on your kids and making them into the self actualized great people that they are, Just remember to take time for yourself and or your spouse or partner as well. Because how you treat others and yourself is the greatest example of how they will love themselves and others in the future!!!
So try to make every day feel like a vacation for yourself and your mate!
Happy Holiday Rising
