Kiddos

For the first time since my diagnosis, I am on my own ... Scott is away for a few days on business ...

Although he probably wasn't looking very forward to it ... I am so happy that he has the opportunity to take some time for himself, even if it is work related.  He has been working overtime around here for weeks ... in addition to his "bill paying" job ...

For me, though, it's a little lonely without him ... so, today, I filled my time with my precious kiddos ...

This morning, after a full-night's sleep in "Mommy's bed" ... Maddie headed off to school, as usual.  Before preschool, Andrew and I stopped at Chick-fil-a for a special breakfast!  He was ALL smiles ... and he actually ate EVERY bite ...

While the kids were away, I was able to mark some things off of my list ... thank goodness!

After school, Andrew and I picked Maddie up from the bus stop and made a beeline for Target ... a little retail therapy ALWAYS brings a smile to my face ... and the kids, too, of course!  Then, a few "necessary" errands, dinner and dessert at Frosty Frog ... and, finally, a viewing of Ghostbusters!  Honestly, I can't think of a more perfect day ...

Most importantly, I enjoyed every minute ... this time with my kiddos can never be replaced and I am so thankful to have found such joy in it ...

Here's to a GREAT weekend ...
