My little Ana has been looking forward to this date ever since I went on a date with Adi a few months ago. Every time I asked her what she wanted to do for our date, she said “The same thing as you and Adi.” So we went to Gloria’s Little Italy where Ana picked out a dessert & a gelato of her choice. While we were eating our dessert Ana said to me, “Mommy, I am so happy I got to come here with you.” and reached out for my hand. She squeezed my hand for a long time while we ate dessert and talked and I wished I could freeze the moment forever. I love this girl.
Then we went to BYU’s Bean museum afterwards because I knew Ana would love it and they just happened to have their grand opening that day. We walked around the whole museum two times and rode the biggest elevator we’ve ever seen. After the elevator door closed and we were the only people in it, I immediately started spinning and Ana excitedly followed after me. We spun around until the elevator stopped and we were so dizzy. I guess the dizziness continued to follow Ana because as soon as she got in the car to go home, she fell asleep.
I hope my daughters will always go on dates with me and never be too embarrassed to hold my hand or give me kisses in public. I will cry the day they stop. For real.
