This week I'm back with Sarah and Matthew and the week started out delightful. I really love doing this, just those wonderful little things that you have the time to do with kids.
We went to the mall and checked out the American Girl Doll store. Yes, there's a two-story store for the American Girl Dolls in Tyson's Mall. It was awesome. Sarah spent about 45 minutes trying to figure out what to get.
We then went to the Lego store where Matthew spent about 15 minutes (if that) picking out some toys.
Then onto the frozen yogurt shop in the mall where they both got to experience their first time doing the whole self-serve frozen yogurt thing. Wonderful.
Then, after getting back they played with their toys so I got to talk on the phone and read a book (almost finished it). Then we did a baking project where we were creative and tried to make a new cupcake recipe (turned out quite good).
All of these are part of the many reasons I love my job. I get to do goofy and fun things I love with kids I love and they are old enough and mature enough so that they give me down time of my own.
All that and I got to read them a Bible story and reinforce the idea of spending time with Jesus. What could be better?
