the goodie-bag tops them all

my boy was spoiled. check his first day goodie-bag

ARE you KIDDING me? he got a ipad3, a MacBook Pro, a new iphone, a cool lunchbox and bag to carry it and a travel mug, a limited addition moleskin journal... I received no such goodie-bag today other than a poop pull-up, a round of whining, a few half eaten apples... HOWEVER i did stub my toe (on the way to the coin laundry btw) and she asked about it 3 additional times through the day wanting to check on it and make sure it was okay, and we did play with our first round of paper dolls and read a new book.

so the "first" days were pretty good. i confess it was my most challenging day so far in LARGE part because I am sick, i don't know what this is but it feels like the flu or a bad sinus infection but i do feel a bit like shoe. and i did feel curious what my rockstar mom friends do when your sick? so honestly today was highly unmemorable on the joy scale for hao and I and that's okay.

PH on the other hand. he was one handsome dude walking out the door this morning and came home one happy guy. i think even with a one-hour compliance video he had a pretty great day. he enjoyed the people he met, was taken out to lunch and is very eager to get to work.

we started our new hopeful tradition of walks together each day so we hit the streets and caught up with one another once he got home. we did receive news that two houses accepted our application and we have like 24 hrs. to make a decision on a place. very different pros and cons on both so any prayers for quick discernment are appreciated.

love again to all of you who were so supportive on this "first" day of new work for us both. (:
