Mother & Son Date "Knight"

Sean and I enjoyed a special date night tonight at Chick-fil-a!

 Take #1 of date night...

Take #2 we actually got him looking at the camera!  (A very difficult feat for an active little guy!)

 Lilly wanted her picture taken with mommy too ;)

One more reason to love our favorite place to eat--they planned a very special night for mothers and their sons--including a peaceful ambience not typical of Chick fil a during daytime hours--tablecloths, candles & extra, extra special service (because they already have great service for moms with kiddos during the daytime!)

Sean drew a special picture for me on a knight shield (he was supposed to draw a "family crest" but he wanted to draw me and himself together, so who was I to argue?!)  They also gave him a balloon sword and a long-stemmed rose to give to me ;)

 My favorite part of the picture is "mommy's VERY long hair" (that looks more like a big spider on the top of my head ;)  I love that he was paying attention to the details, though!

Sean's favorite part of the evening by far, however, was the bounce castle they had outside.  He jumped and bounced to his heart's content and I think he enjoyed the fact that ALL my attention was on him for a change instead of being divided amongst his sisters!  He popped out of the opening once and I asked him, "Are you done already, buddy?"  to which he replied, "No, I just came to give you a hug!"  Be still my heart!  How sweet!

I sure hope they have a Daddy/Daughter date night sometime soon at Chick-fil-A!  I'm sure Lilly & Brilee enjoyed their time with daddy tonight, but Lilly sure was sad she wasn't going tonight ;(

Thanks, Chick-fil-A for the wonderful memories with my little guy!
