Take Him By the Hand

No.  This is not a postcard. 

It's also not a googled image of Maui.

And it's not a copied picture from my "Yes, Please" board on Pinterest.

Yes.  I am actually looking at that scene through my viewfinder.  

Amazing cannot describe the time we had in Maui.  It was absolutely wonderful and such a blessing!  We are so thankful for all the hands that went into taking care of our little ones while we got away to soak in the sun, have a few mai tais and not care what time of day it was.  

Please know, my faithful followers, that I do not intend to post these "I am so jealous" pictures just to tease you.  Rather, I want to encourage you to find that hubby of yours, take him by the hand, and go somewhere with him!  Just the two of you.  It's the most refreshing, rejuvenating, romantic thing you can do for your relationship.  By no means do you have to buy yourselves tickets to Hawaii (although I highly recommend it) but a sunset walk, or a nice dinner, or even a night away makes a big difference.  

You could even just share a little dance :)

Thomas and I will never forget our treasured time on Maui...WITHOUT KIDS!  And we will never forget the importance of spending quality time, being fully present with each other.
