ā€œDad, Dad, Dad!!!ā€

The excitement in Mal and Silas’ voices was next level.

I swiveled in my chair to face the boys, ripping my attention away from my computer screen.

ā€œWhat is it, boys!?ā€

They had just arrived home and I
Ā  could tell thatĀ whereverĀ they had been
they’d had a BLAST!


ā€œWe picked oranges!

Ā  Ā Ā AndĀ patted chickens!

Ā  Ā  Ā Ā AndĀ saw a tractor!

Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā Ā AndĀ had a picnic under the trees!

Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā Ā AndĀ ATEĀ oranges!

Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā Ā And…

Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā Ā And…

Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā Ā Ā And…

Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  They were…

YUUUM!!ā€


ā€œWow,Ā That sounds likeĀ SOĀ much fun!!ā€ I said enthusiastically.

I
  genuinely had FOMO. 🄲

That’s weird...

Usually, it’s the other way around…

Larissa then bounced excitedly into the office (looking as gorgeous as ever), with a massive grin on her face.

ā€œIt wasĀ magical, we
had so much fun!ā€


Yep,Ā seriousĀ FOMO… (post fomo?)

…Wait is this what the mums feel
Ā  after we dads come back from a Dadventure?...

ā€œWe picked so many oranges,ā€ she continued,

ā€œand the branches were
Ā  nice and low so the boys could even pick some!ā€

Silas, our 2 year old chimed in:

ā€œI pulled this orange!ā€ He yelled as he proudly presented a great big orange half the size of his head.

ā€œIt was weally, weally hard! I pulled so hard that I fell over on my bum! But..

ā€œI did it!ā€
šŸ™Œ


His eyes were bright with excitement as he thought back over the memory of his accomplishment.

ā€œYou did so good, Silas!ā€ Larissa added encouragingly.
ā€œAnd they even taught us how to
Ā  cut the orangesĀ correctly.ā€

ā€œHuh? What!
Ā Ā Who’s been keeping this from us!ā€ I looked at her quizzically.

ā€œYeah, it’sĀ true. We’ve been cutting oranges…
Ā Ā 

ā€œThe wrong way!ā€



A few minutes later we were eating oranges in the kitchen trying out the orange grower’sĀ secret orange-slicing-hack.

And I can vouch for it!

But more on that later…

What I couldn’t get over was howĀ excitedĀ they all were.

Not about the orange slices (although that was exciting), but about their:
Ā Ā 

Mumventure!


Yes, family adventures areĀ awesome.

Almost as awesome asĀ Dadventures. šŸ˜‰

But mum trying out something brand new, just her and the kids…

WAS A HIT!

Like many, our family thrives on routine…

But, incorporating new
Ā Ā experiencesĀ into our routine has been one of theĀ BESTĀ ways our family has found to create fun andĀ memorableĀ moments together.

Ā  kids willĀ trulyĀ remember and think back about forĀ YEARSĀ to come.

They’re memories that will helpĀ formĀ the foundation of your relationship with your kids.

P.S.

Still waiting on that secret orange-slicing-hack?


Simply cut your orange into wedges CROSSWAYS. Like, NOT end to end, but straight through the middle, so each hemisphere has its own navel / belly button thing… This way each wedge has multiple bite-sized segments that easily pull away from the skin for easy eating, less mess, and fewer strings stuck in your teeth! Give it a go and let us know what you think.
And if you’ve always been cutting oranges this way, hit reply and let me know! I’ve been eating half
-time orange wedges for years and I’ve never seen this before now!
