Well, B is yet again out of town, so I went about my typical Monday activities. This consists of leaving work a little early and rushing back to town to take M to gymnastics. We got out of gymnastics shortly after 6:30, so we headed over to the airport as I promised M last week. The plane had not arrived yet.
We sat there for a short while chatting (well, as much as you can chat to a soon-to-be 3 year old). The controllers started preparing the airport for the plane, so I knew it wasn't far out. We turned on Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire and listened to the book on tape for a brief period and then I could see the light of the plane on the horizon. We watched the plane land. I explained the landing process to M and the de-planing process as well. We watched the luggage being unloaded and the plane being prepared for take off to Ponca. The plane then took off and we left the airport for the next part of our date--Walmart & "The Donalds".
We headed to Walmart where mommy picked up a couple of items, and we went to the McDonald's there where M got Chicken Nuggets and I got a Quarter Pounder w/ Cheese and onions, despite my specific request for no onions.
It was a good date--just Mommy & M. Sometimes we need that kind of bonding time with our child--just you and the child w/o the other parent.
