Day 275: 5 Gratitudes for Friday, 35

1. K's arm was not broken and the majority of the pain has passed. She is still being careful with it, but is no longer using the sling and only took pain medicine last night. So glad the sprain wasn't any worse!

2. The opportunity to once again participate in fantasy football with my husband. Football is not my thing (I find it rather boring), but fantasy football is rather fun. More importantly it is an easy way for me to share one of my husband's passion with him. (And some years I do pretty good!)

3. Steve spending so much time with the children this week. Each one of them needed him (for different reasons & in different ways) and he came through beautifully for each one of them. He really is a great father.

4. Steve and Z surprised us girls the other night with a fancy restaurant....at home. The girls and I were the only ones to attend kung fu this week. When we got home, Steve and Z had created a fancy restaurant in our family room: cloth tablecloth, folded napkins, the good plates, the fancy glasses, candles lit, and a flower centerpiece. It was very impressive. Next, they created a name, log and menu for their restaurant: The Red Dragon. Z designed the logo and acted as the maitre d (he even dressed up!). Steve was our waiter and designed the menu. It was so much fun and such a wonderful surprise.

5. Steve always willing to give me a night off from mom duties. This past week, I went out to eat with 2 wonderful friends. What I do on my night off is not nearly as important as having the time off - guilt free. Steve never hesitates to give me that time.

Happy Walking!
