It Takes an Iron Man and a Woman

The esposo and I had another round of our #NotYourTypicalDateNight series last Friday. It was a movie date, showing no less than the Iron Man. I’m not sure when our last cinema date was, I’m guessing years ago. I do not know that a movie pass costs P200 on a regular cinema now. #MissingMyMTRCBPass. Oh well, what makes this date not the typical one was the fact that we bought our last-full-show’s tickets a night before the screening. We wanted to be responsible parents 1st and sneak like teenagers later, so we secured a ticket before hand. lol 

So that Friday, after office, we went home as usual. Not giving the kids a hint, we performed our usual parental routine, which includes eating dinner and giving them night-bath, among others. We wanted to put the kiddos to bed as early as possible so we could be on time with our 20:25 movie date, but our Uno might have felt something and stayed awake after all the bedtime stories. When I realized we were running late, I decided to be honest with her. I told her, “Baby, go to sleep, Nanay and Tatay will go out and watch movie”. She said, “Okay Nanay, go out”. I never thought my girl was not as hard to deal with as my parents way back. Haha 

So off we go to the movie house. Mi esposo was still anticipating for an extra scene after the full length movie, so we waited until all the credits rolled up, maybe about 5 minutes and true enough a bonus scene came out. It was a little over 5 seconds and says nothing about what he's anticipating, a possible part 4. He was frustrated.

The movie was great, btw, funny and all. 


The photo above was taken at the parking. The esposo was astonished by the look of our car that he can’t resist say it out loud, he even took a photo of it. He never took any of his gorgeous wife’s (ehem) stunning (ehem, ehem) OOTDs mind you. I playfully squeezed myself in to destroy the moment. lol

I laugh to myself when I saw the photo. I thought, was this an act of responsible parents? Would a loving father be mesmerized by the charm of a toy? And would a caring mother breaks all the fun?

That’s what I like best about “us”, we’re parents yet we’re also children.
