Life is in the details...

A few little things to be happy about this morning. (gotta find the positive since my cold is still lingering).
  • There are little tips of green poking their heads out around my Aspen tree. Could it really be possible that tulips and or daffodils will be arriving soon? Gosh I hope so.
  • It was warm enough this morning that the Things rode their bikes to school. The weather man said that yesterday's temp above 60 was the first time we've reached that level since early December. Gotta love the warmer weather that is finally starting to become more frequent.
  • Walking home, I heard the birds chirping and the knocking of a woodpecker somewhere off in the distance.

Spring: I can see it, I can feel it and I can even hear it. By golly, she's on her way! Yahoo...

Other good news to report in the tooth department: Thing Two conquered his fear and wiggled that tooth right out of its double parked spot. Bless his heart: he didn't want the dentist to help him with his special tools so he kept working it last night until finally he started to grin from ear to ear. He barely freaked when he noticed the blood that came with it. I too am over the moon and gladly paid on my promise of $10 if he pulled it himself. I figure the dentist would have charged me ten times that amount AND I'd have had to endure the pain and suffering of taking Mr. Anxiety in for the removal. Yep, priceless I tell ya!

So, what little detail today put a smile on your face?

oh, jake lost a tooth the day before last...it made me happy that he was excited that she brought him money even though he actually lost the proof (probably somewhere in the couch) also happy that he was excited about the glitter (fairy dust) that was left over his bed and by the window...makes me realize i do sometimes have 'good mom' moments.
