Day 294

Glad my work day is done today!

It was a nice day and I had some unexpected joy to go along with this crazy week!  I had very few clients today, and as a result, I got to take Connor to the Mission.  We walked around, looked at all of the beautiful flowers and plants, walked inside the gift store and bought a cook book, threw pennies in each and every penny fountain, fed fish Kix (yes you read that right lol), and then had a great lunch at a Mexican restaurant down the street!

It was a great time and I am so thankful that I didn't have to work as much today so that I was able to enjoy extra time with my Boo Boo.  I could have left him at the babysitter and had a "me" day.  With David being gone and me being with my kids 24/7 right now, I could have used the time for something, but I would have missed Connor laughing as the Koi fish sucked up the Kix, and I would have missed him running on the grass, and being able to take pictures of the AMAZING flowers blooming all over the Mission grounds.  So spending the day with Connor...worth it!

We picked Joel up from school and came home.  We all sat down and snuggled while we watched a Baby Einstein video.  Then my mom came over and it was back to work for me for a bit.  Work was good, but I couldn't wait to get back home!  We went out to dinner with my parents and had a great time eating and laughing with them.  I am so thankful that my parents were able to be around so much this week!  They help out so much and I am eternally grateful for wonderful family members!

After dinner, the boys went to bed and I turned on the first episode of Dallas in about 20+ years!  My mom and I used to watch it when I was really little.  She would stand behind me while I would sit on the couch and she would iron and we would watch the latest episode of Dallas (taped on VHS) from the previous day....those were the days!  Tonight I watched it while on the phone off and on with my mom....so much fun!

David is doing well in Colorado, but I am so thankful he is coming home tomorrow!  I am grateful for all of the happy moments that I got to blog about tonight!  Looking forward to more as we approach the end of this week!
