Skiing? With the girls?
I bit my lip as I waited for the dots to stop doing the wave and the words to appear.

Yep. Cheyenne is old enough to take lessons. We can put Ash in a baby sled.
Despite mending the bones of Olympic skiers, I’d never experienced the sport myself. Did I want to be out in the cold, going down the mountain, knowing people broke bones doing the same thing? Then again, I did want to do something with Chris, even if this wasn’t actually a date.But it sounds like one.
People don’t take their kids on dates.
Or did they, and I just didn’t know because I’d never had the care of small children before?

I’ll look at my schedule.
I pulled up my calendar. The week before Christmas and week of Christmas were already blocked off with the noteFun with Ellynn and fam!
My eyes watered. Could I go skiing, knowing Ellynn and Asher were missing out?
Maybe it’s the distraction you need.
I wasn’t sure of that, but what else did I have to look forward to? Making a decision, I sent my availability to Chris.
Chris
I’ll schedule everything, if that’s okay?
Erykah
As long as you know I’m paying.
Chris
Erykah...
Erykah
Chris!
Chris
Ok. Thank you.
Erykah
Easy when you just accept facts, isn’t it?
Chris
??
I laughed. We definitely needed to have a talk when I got back home.
