The good times

D did the sweetest thing last night. G brought in the mail and there was one envelope, so he let D open it. Just as D finished opening it, B walked in and was upset because she didn't get to open mail. A few minutes later, D asked me to get her tape down. She drew a picture and made an envelope out of paper, taped it all together and gave it to B to open. I was almost ready to cry, it was so sweet! It's times like that when you realize that you are doing something right as a parent.

The baby is such a sweetheart today. He's walking as fast as he can around the living room with his hands in the air saying, "ha ha... ha ha... ha ha" Ah these are the good times.

Supper is in the oven and I can smell it cooking. mmmmm Ribs and twice-baked potatoes. If only I had some corn-on-the-cob to go with it.

Tonight, I'm going shopping. just to see what's on sale and pick up a garment rack... but still shopping, with no children, all by myself! Then I'm picking a friend up and going out to another friend's house. Hmmm I'm trying to decide between cheesecake and icecream cake. Oh the decisions one has to make.

All-in-all, a good day today.
