It's times like these...

So Monday was a holiday. Matthew was off from work and Patrick was out of school but his afterschool program was open all day. Matthew slept in while I brought Patrick to school. Matthew enjoyed most of the day to himself and then picked up Patrick early from school. It was such a nice day outside (compared to the past three weeks) that Matthew told Patrick he was taking him to his surprise. Matthew had planned to take him home, change, and then head to the local park. While at the park, Patrick was crossing a swinging bridge while Matthew walked along side him. Patrick paused and looked down at his dad from up above and said ..."Dad thank you for taking me to my surprise." Matthew said his heart melted. I told Matthew that times like that make you want to have 20, but it is the other times when you are pulling your hair out you only want one!

Hope everyone is having a great week!

Cute!! Of course, there are more times where you just want one!

I know exactly what you mean. We'd love one more, but Dan will come home from work on a day when I'm going out of my mind with the girls and look at me and say, "Let's go have another one!"
