It was wonderful to take a slow paced vacation. Very different from the family vacation, where the kids are looking for non-stop entertainment! We spent our first full day taking a drive through Cades Cove and got to see our first black bear (from a distance and safety of our car!). And the next day, my loving and patient husband spent the day taking me around the craft trail to all the shops. I just love pottery and soy candles!
We found our dinners in the cabin very quiet. No children complaining about eating their veggies and our little two year old screaming, "I do it!" and "Want that!" By our last night we found ourselves imitating what dinner would have sounded like! LOL! Children defiantly give a fullness to our lives and sometimes it takes that empty feeling to appreciate the fullness better!
