"Well, I guess it's a good thing I have a volunteer to help me with breakfast," I said.
Amelia's little hand snapped out, and she grabbed a strawberry, making her father and me laugh.
"There's one more thing," he said.
I groaned and rolled my eyes. "We promised we weren't going to do anniversary gifts."
"Don't think of this as a gift," he said. "Or at least just think of it as a gift for both of us."
He reached in his pocket and pulled out a folded piece of paper. I took it and opened it, finding confirmations for reservations for a mountain cabin.
"A cabin?" I asked. "We're going to the mountains?"
He nodded. "Just the two of us. I already have care for the little ones lined up. Allison and Ryan and Graham and Mallory are going to alternate."
"How long is this?" I asked.
"Just five days. Not even a whole week."
It was hard to imagine being away from the children for so long, but the more I thought about it, the more excited I got thinking about getting the chance to relax and spend time just with my husband. By the time I finished eating, I was ready to start packing.
The next day, we loaded up the car and headed for the gorgeous cabin. It sat in a lush, wooded area with a beautiful sparkling private lake. The secluded, quiet area meant it was totally private. It reminded me of the destination wedding where we’d first fallen in love, and we hadn't even unpacked before I was tugging Mark toward the bed with me.
We giggled as we tumbled onto the bed, taking off each other's clothes in between kisses. It was possible we might just not leave the cabin. Maybe we'd try again for our next anniversary.
The End
