this week

Perry went to his first movie theater movie to see Frozen. He sat on my lap through the whole thing. My arms went numb a few times from the way he was leaning back on me so I was grateful every time a song came on and he started rocking and singing along and so then my arms got a bit of a break. And we couldn't have done it without his backpack which carried snacks, juice, and his blanket. It was a fun outing with my three boys.

The sun is shining today and I am about to head out to clean the mini-van. That would be the car that Eric refused to drive the other day because it smelled funny (I think the culprit was a spilled water bottle and some left over treats from a birthday party a boy went to). Before I head out to to do this task and make our car not so dirty and unpleasant to climb into, I want to remind myself of some things I have been extra grateful for this week: sun, fresh air, a vacuum cleaner, my dishwasher, yoga, Mickey Mouse shows, grocery stores, recycling and garbage trucks/workers, hot showers, notebooks, kind people, the Piano Guys music, my ipod, and Facetime. Lots of good things in my life.
