I love doing things with Croix. I like introducing new things to him and exploring new things myself. Its important to keep that mother son bond strong. Getting to know your kids as individuals and learn there personalities is key I believe to having a successful and healthy relationship with them as they grow. I made a list of things I wanted to do with him before he was even born (Yeah I was a pretty excited, lol). My list is pretty damn long let me tell ya! I even broke things down into seasons HAHAHA! But I wanted to share a few general ideas with you mommies out there as inspiration to take your son(s) on dates. I am all about making memories. Have fun! :)
