Alison Curtis: Having a 'date night' with my daughter
Last week my daughter Joan and I had what I called a date night, but she wrinkled up her nose and suggested we just call it hanging out. It was a glimpse into the future of when the focus of her world moves away from her immediate family, and mom and dad aren’t so cool.
We started by heading into Dublin’s city centre to get our hair cut. It was the first time we had appointments at the same time. It was fun, sweet, and very chilled. We chatted with our lovely hairdresser, just gal chats, and Joan very much felt part of it.
