“Thank you, Mommy!”
When we arrived at the amusement park the other day, I commented to the girls that I had snacks for them for later. “Thank you, Mommy!” Avery answered with a smile, marking the first time she has delivered a “thank you” for something other than being given food or handed an object. Parenting can be a pretty thankless job – so when you get some out-of-the-blue gratitude from one of your kids (like I did with Zoe a few weeks ago), it’s pretty special!
