Here's to simple evenings.

Tonight was good.
No elaborate plans tonight or anything, but the evening made me happy nonetheless.
Roland made dinner (he's the cook in our home) and we gathered around the table to eat. This isn't a habit we had at our old house, and I've really enjoyed our dinners together, for the most part. Paige often complains about sitting and doesn't eat, but tonight she slurped up her "yummy noodles" (aka Ramaan Pride) and was pleasant.
After dinner, we cleaned up the table, and all of us, Momma, Daddy, Paige-Girlie, and Aunt Michelle worked on our Unplugged Project. I really enjoyed having a family project.
Then I gave Paige a bath and we used out this new cup thing that Michelle bought to help keep the soapy water out of her eyes. It worked wonderfully and it is the first bath in a long time with out screaming and/or tears about soap in her eyes.
Then she got in her Ariel jammies, watched Charlie and Lola and ate goldfish while I combed her hair.
Sometimes simple is so good.
Sometimes simple makes me smile.

"Ordinary" days are definitely the best;)

The key to being happy is recognizing those happy times when you're in the midst of them. Harder than it sounds! Congrats on recognizing this one and truly enjoying it :)
