It is about the small things we can do

Tonight was my "free" night to get work down. The plan was to get out of "jail" early and get the 39 + 1 year old their birthday gifts. Don't ask what they are because I won't tell. Anyway the reality was I had a late afternoon meeting which pushed back my timetables by 90 minutes. CamMad got home way before me tonight and child2 was sad that I wasn't home yet. Thanks to the top 5 invention/top 5 detriment, the cell phone, child2 was able to talk to me on the phone. Parent2 remarked how quickly a smile appeared and was able to make it until night-night time. When I got home I was told to go right up and wish child2 a good night. Child2 was very cute as sleep just about won the battle. I was able to say goodnight and child2 went to sleep. Child1 fought the whole night-night process (big shocker). Who would have thought that a quick hi, did you have a good day, be good could change ones disposition. Sometimes parents forget the little things can make a big difference in their lives. Parent and cat owners please think about the small things things that can make a difference in the small ones in our lives.
