A good day

Normal day, let me be aware of the treasure you are… Let me not pass you by in quest of some rare and perfect Tomorrow. One day I shall dig my nails into the earth, or bury my face in my pillow, or stretch myself taut, or raise my hands to the sky and want, more than all the world, your return.
- Mary Jean Iron


Today has been a good day.  


Mia and I had a mommy/daughter date at Starbucks this morning, where we leisurely each enjoyed a treat, then we sat outside for a while in the warm sun, Mia walked around, charmed every innocent bystander, and then we ran a few errands in the car.  We had lunch out at Moe's and she sat next to me the majority of the time, nibbling on her quesadilla and splitting the oatmeal raisin cookie with me.  When we got home she wanted to play in the car -- she likes fiddling with the buckle in her carseat so we did that for a while, and then she got to play pretend driver.  Only in her dreams would she really be able to drive!  We listened to the radio and sang along and then it was time for her nap.  *Sigh*


Good day, I am thankful for you!
