A Splash Of Color

We have been a busy family with school activities and other things that it feels like we are always coming and going. On Sunday Clarissa's school held their very first Family Movie Night and it was showing Planet 51. I'm on the home and school comity so I was at the main table and Quentin sat on blankets with the girls. Clarissa loved seeing friends of her's outside of school. I liked talking to other mom's. We plan to host another movie again because this one was such a success that we are looking forward to doing more.

Today Quentin wanted to get some golf in and I thought it was a great idea because his parents haven't seen the girls for a while and I wanted to get a few things done around the house and so it was a win/win situation with all parties involved. I enjoyed relaxing and even working on a few things, but nothing could have prepared me for what the girls greeted me with when they came RUNNING in the doors. They each carried a bundle of flowers that they had picked for me. Clarissa told me, "Mom you are so pretty and I love you. These are for you!" I smiled and got up to get a vase and then Kimberly came running in, "Mommy mommy look these are for you." I smiled and put both bundles together and got them in a vase. I hugged them both and told them just how much I loved them and that they didn't have to do that! I took some pictures of the flowers so that even after they wilt I will forever have a splash of color!
