Ink And Reason

My ideal day would start with waking up next to my partner and my kid, who are the most important people in my life. I would give them a big hug and a kiss, and tell them how much I love them. We would get up and make breakfast together, something simple but delicious, maybe pancakes or toast with jam, while listening to music or radio. We would eat together at the table, chatting and laughing about our plans for the day.

After breakfast, we would play some games together, like board games or puzzles, or maybe do some crafts or drawing. I love seeing my kid’s creativity and imagination, and I also enjoy spending quality time with my partner. We would have fun and bond as a family.

Then we would go outside and do something together, like going to the park, visiting a museum or a zoo. We would explore and discover new things, and enjoy the fresh air and the sunshine.

We would come back home for lunch, and we would cook together something tasty and healthy, like pasta, egg salad, fish or a Romanian soup (ciorba or borscht). We would help each other in the kitchen, chopping, stirring, tasting, and having fun. We would eat together at the table again, and maybe watch some cartoons or a movie afterwards.

We would take a nap in the afternoon, cuddling together in our cozy bed. We would rest and recharge our batteries, and maybe dream of our next adventure.

We would play some more games together, or maybe read some books or magazines. I love reading and writing, so I would also take some time to do that for myself. I would write a blog post or a poem, or maybe read a novel or a biography. I would also encourage my kid to read or write something too, to develop his skills and passion.

Before going to sleep, I would read something to my kid until he falls asleep, something sweet and soothing, like a fairy tale or a bedtime story. I would tuck him in and kiss him goodnight. Usually he takes me into his small arms and tells me he loves me and that he is happy. Then I would spend some quality time with my partner, we would just do something sensual or watch a movie together. We would cuddle and kiss, and talk about daily life or future plans. We would fall asleep in each other’s arms.

That’s my ideal day, from beginning to end. It doesn’t happen every day the same way, but usually this is the script. I know it may sound simple or boring to some people, but for us it’s perfect. It’s all about spending time with the people I love, doing the things I enjoy, and being happy and healthy.
