"Each friend represents a world in us . . .

. . . a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born." -Anais Nin
I'm thankful for:

1. spending time drawing and coloring with the kids
   
2. D', Tyler and Cody coming for a sleep over
3. tickle time and silliness with the C's
   
4. Thomas finally falling asleep during naptime
   
5. getting to pickup Christian from preschool without bringing Thomas and Clara along
   
6. overhearing Christian asking Clara nicely if he can close the door and accepting it when she said "no". Oh, the tireless work is starting to pay off!
   
7. the kids all playing nicely together
   
8. D' reading the kids their bedtime story while I got Thomas ready for bed
   
9. enjoying cookies and wine with D' after the kids are in bed
   
10. a great week in spite of Jeff being gone all week
