Surprise

Brooks left Thursday afternoon for the annual CPC youth ski trip.  He surprised me by taking the entire day off so he could spend the morning with E and I before leaving for the trip.  When he told me Wednesday night my heart skipped a beat and my toes curled.  What a sweet surprise!

We shared breakfast with him at Dunkin Donuts.  Afterward, he joined us at storytime at the library.  I wish I had taken pictures of Elijah sitting in his lap enjoying the songs and stories.  It was a delight sharing this part of our week with him.

Later, we had to help him gather his things and to say goodbye for the weekend.
