Timeout...
Time out for a toddler is a punishment.
Time out for a busy homeschool mom sounds like bliss.
So when my friend, Sarah, mentioned that she had free hotel points and wanted to share...
it did not take long for me to respond with a very exuberant YES!!!
We headed up to the mountains to do some hiking first.
The weather was gorgeous...
and having adult conversation without ANY interruptions...
well, except for the panting of breath and the occasional inhaler puff...
was amazing!!
We rested up at the hotel...read a book in SILENCE...
and then headed out for a yummy Mexican dinner.
The next day we started to drive back to Charlotte but decided to make a detour at The Cove.
We walked around and spent some time in the prayer chapel...
it was so peaceful and soul-filling.
Spending that time away with a friend...having non-stop conversations...quieting our hearts in nature and then in the beautiful prayer chapel...being reminded that all that we have is owed to Christ...
it was an incredible time out!!
