>Gratitude Monday

>Eight days.

One trip to Great America with three kids.

A birthday.

48 homemade chocolate chip cookies.

One late-night grocery store run (cookies need eggs, go figure)

One custom-ordered cake (vanilla cake with vanilla frosting, red roses with green leaves all around the top and “Happy Birthday” written in cursive with chocolate. He was VERY specific.)

One surprise birthday breakfast with decorations, coffee cake and presents.

Four days of VBS (12 hour days).

350 customized nametags printed EACH DAY

One pool party.

One infected bug bite (and a trip to the doctor to get more nasty pink medicine)

One MRI and a reeeeeely long needle.

One herb-garden planted.

5 visits to the pool (in addition to swimming lessons and pool party)

Father’s Day.

I am so grateful we survived last week!
