Even though... (Wed 11)

Today was one of those days...

1) Even though it didn't work out for us all to go to the same place for dinner, I'm thankful for the one on one time I had w/ Q as she and I dined at Red Robin. (M took G to McD's because he had promised him, and even though his fries were 'extra crispy' G was still pleased as punch!)

2) Even though the traffic on Maple was SO awful and it took us 20 minutes to get there, I'm thankful the food was good and I had her company while we sat and waited.

3) Even though I'd rather her hair be long, and though it was so hard for me to make that first cut, I'm grateful to have made Q happy. She is all aglow w/ her new haircut. She's been asking me for months. (photos to follow)

4) Even though I'd really just like a minute to sit and eat by myself, I'm thankful O wants to be w/ me. It doesn't matter that he's just eaten his b-fast, whatever I'm eating he wants too, and he wants to eat it sitting on my lap.

5) Even though E is getting up earlier than the kids (6-6:30) and I'd rather us ALL be sleeping until 7, I'm thankful for the quiet moments w/ him, as tired as I may be. And, I'm thankful that he'll go right back to sleep those early mornings so I can too.
