Sweet Gesture

Despite the chill in the weather, Connor warmed my heart. I was getting him a bowl of doughnut holes for breakfast this morning when the phone rang. I carried his bowl with me and set him in the chair next to mine with his doughnut holes and milk and carry on my conversation. He gets up 30 seconds later while I'm busily gabbing away and returns with another bowl of doughnut holes. I said "Honey, I already got you a bowl," nodding toward his barely touched treats and he replied "For Mama" and handed them to me. So thoughtful!

I Tried

(...having my friends over for dinner even if all I have is a can of soup to serve and the house isn't spotless!)

The house was in a state of UNcleanliness and we had a Homestyle Bake. Yup, dinner from a box and salad from a bag. But it was all good. The girls enjoyed not having to cook and clean up. We watched Over the Hedge for the gazillionth time and we even had a baby rave and gave the kids glowsticks in the dark while watching the episode of Spongebob "Jellyfish Jam" which features music you can't help but groove to. A good time was had by all.
