Yesterday was Valentine's Day.  I gave Noah a new "rapid-fire" Nerf toy gun... a toy that speaks to a 13 year old.  He loves to take target practice at his little brother..and for now...John-Michael is willing to play the game.   I gave Madeline a couple of small stuffed animals and some unique erasers (she has a little collection of them).   I gave John-Michael a pirate costume...something to help playtime...   And..of course I gave them each a little chocolate.  Russell received a home-made cheesecake...

Today...the day after...  .. was pretty average.  School, dinner, cleaning the house... I LIKE the average...I thank God for those average days.  There is comfort in them...for I know the other days will be coming..  Realllllly good...and realllllly bad...   Today...I am content and thankful for the ordinary!
