Yesterday, I took Eli to get a donut as a treat after his doctor's appointment. It turns out that he didn't need shots at his appointment like I thought he would. And, Ben went in late to work just so he could give me emotional support through the vaccines. But, nevertheless, donuts to celebrate a good appointment! I love that as we pulled into the parking space in front of the donut shop, Eli shouted, "Yay!" from the backseat. He shortly abandoned me and the pink-frosted donut he picked out to go to the mirror to have a conversation with himself. I didn't understand everything he was saying, but judging by the laughter, it must have been pretty funny.
We then went to playgroup, where I was thrilled that he didn't hit, push, or shove another kid. (That was a pretty big accomplishment considering the week we've had.) And, he had a great nap, with bed-head to prove it.
Then, we played at the park, even though the slide and swings were sopping wet from the earlier rain shower. This face is one of the main reasons that I love being a mother. Eli is happy, and he knows it! And, come to think of it, I am too.
