Friday

Mr. T took the day off today. Except for our summer holidays, this is the first weekday he has taken off since we started our company. Crazy, I know!

We had a day that can only be described as lovely. It was rather ordinary in many ways but we were together ALL DAY and that, my friends, is a treat. We began our day with coffee and tea. Then I got to shower without a small hooligan rearranging the bathroom cupboards. Next we worked over Costco. It was so nice to walk the aisles hand in hand, laughing at the antics of our little one (who’s curls were in FULL EFFECT and caused quite a stir along the way). We bought Christmas presents, running gear, groceries. We found vanilla beans for crazy cheap! A birthday present for our oldest… I think we might have to talk to the bank about skipping our next mortgage payment (kidding, Dad!).

Young Bucky fell asleep on the way home (total strategy) so we got to eat lunch together. The first time we sat down. And no one spilled their milk or complained about their bread or fell off their chair. And no one wanted to share- until we got to dessert. Mr. T and I split the rest of my birthday cake right off the serving platter. SO GOOD!

All that chocolate made me tired so I had a nap. BLISS! Mr. T picked up the kids from school and then took them all out in the car so I could keep sleeping. You see why I like having him around?

We liked our Friday so much that we are planning to have a pajama day tomorrow. Can’t wait!
