However after picking him up and driving for about 5 min towards the beach, we realized that the weather at the beach was going to be complete crap. So he suggested we detour and just take a walk in the park.
What started with playing on the swings ended with a quiet conversation simply sitting on a grassy knoll overlooking the baseball diamonds. It was actually a perfect time. When we are always either coming or going, or our quality time is the equivalent of sleep. We forget just how nice it is to sit with the one we love in the daylight fully awake and aware. Simply just enjoying that they are looking at you while you are looking at them. I guess in some ways it is a validification of the fact that we do indeed exist. That someone else is aware of it and treasures that existence.
