“I’m gonna see Santa, right Daddy?”
I have to laugh. It’s only the third time my children have had a “Santa visit” since we arrived two days ago, but they still get excited every time.
“You’re gonna see Santa?” Ada widens her eyes in mock surprise. “I’m gonna see Santa too!”
Cameron gazes from Ada to Bradley and back to Ada. His brow quirks in an unspoken question.
Bradley nods and Ada reaches a hand out to Preston. “How’d you like to see Santa with me and Uncle Brad?”
Preston slides his little hand in hers. “It’s okay, right Mommy?”
Before I can answer, Cameron steps behind me sliding his arms around my middle. He pulls me back against his chest, hugging me. “It’s great, champ.”
I stifle a giggle because I know exactly what Cameron just did and why.
Hey, with twins, we make alone time whenever and however we can.
My husband, ex-corporate shark, is now a master at doting on our family. He spends one-on-one time with our children, as well as time with the family as a whole. He also makes time for just the two of us.
The four of us visit our cabin twice a year—in the early spring and late fall. Yes,ourcabin. It was a wedding present from Cameron's grandfather.
We’ve made a few changes to it—added a couple small bedrooms, and some amenities such as running water, a larger bathroom, and a generator to provide minimal electricity, but it’s still rather rustic.
“Come on, Kitten,” he says as his delicious aroma of autumn leaves, waterfalls, and leather jackets wafts over my senses. “I’m guessing I have my wife all to myself for about sixty minutes before we’re interrupted, and I intend for you to be naked for fifty-eight of them.
I squeal when he scoops me up and carries me to the elevator.
My life is busy and full.
There are carpools and minivans, shuffling kids to playgroups and dance classes,but most of all, there’s loving and being loved by the best husband a woman could ever dream of, and I couldn’t be happier.
