Nice Evening at Home

Sometimes, I think someone comes in an possesses my children. Last night was one of those nights. First of all, our kids really do get along well with each other - most of the time. :)

Yesterday afternoon, the girls and I drove in. Josh immediately comes down to greet us (like he usually does). Well, when we went upstairs, he took the girls into the living room to play. I then heard, "Hey Callie! Come here! Do you want to watch Dora?" Josh usually gets a little cranky if we turn his shows off to watch what the girls want to watch. So, this surprised me a little that he was offering to let them watch Dora! Way to go, Josh!

Then, at supper, I ran out of Doritos (w/ my soup) and I just said, "Oh look! I ran out of Doritos!". Josh said, "Here, you can have the rest of mine!". Doritos are his favorites!

Before that, I told the kids were were having left over soup (again). Callie isn't a soup eater, so she told me she didn't want any. I told her I would make her a cheese sandwich. She told me she wanted a sandwich with just jelly on it. I told her that I had to put some peanut butter on it because she wasn't just having a jelly sandwich. Well, instead of throwing a fit, she said, "Okay, Mommy! Thank you!" in the sweetest voice!

I wish every evening was like that! Everyone was so polite! :)
