Our Mother Daughter Tea

A post on Living Out Loud by Lori

Nice article with pictures featuring Mother-Daughter dates.

Some pointers:
  • Schedule a date on the # day of their birthdays.  So if their child was born on the 15th of the month, the mom or dad will take the child out for a little date of sorts (coffee, a walk, a drive in the country, a movie, a meal etc.) on the 15th of each month.
  • We’ve also known families who like to schedule get aways with the whole family.  It serves to remove the worldly busy-ness that invades quality time.  It may not be one on one with the child but it’s momentous and memorable.
  • And we’ve also taken to random dates that are spontaneously planned. Hot chocolate at the local coffee shop is an all time favorite.  There’s something that makes our girls feel so grown up when they order a hot cocoa!
