Daydreaming

Andy and I have had our family trip booked to PEI this summer since August.  Almost a month after we returned from our trip last year, we booked again, this time for two weeks.

Now you may think I’m crazy for even bringing this up, but seriously, not a day goes by when we don’t talk about it.  It’s not as though it’s some magical portal that transfers us into a non-tantrum, no-sibling-fighting universe – but holy cow, there is a touch of magic to how we all end up feeling when we are there.

Is it because we are together, just the four of us? And the kids have so much extra attention? Is it because the food is amazing and often not cooked by me? Because the chores and work are typically minimal and when possible left in Ontario? Why does the pace feel so different?

Maybe it is a magical place.  We are so excited, and I guess it’s good to have something to look forward to.  But I’m daydreaming a little too often about it now…is it the place I’m thinking of, or the pace?  Whatever the case, none of us can wait.

What are you daydreaming about?
