A treat for me :o)



Our friends, Steven and Summer came over for dinner last night. Steven especially enjoys Matthew - always happy to hold him and try to get him to laugh and smile.

Matthew actually fell asleep at church yesterday morning - that hasn't happened in months. We decided that since he was asleep to just let him take his nap there. Normally, we all go to Sunday School and then I take him home afterwards - he falls asleep in the car on the way home and Mark goes to the worship service. Well, we paid for it - him only getting a 45 minute nap. Matthew was particularly cranky the rest of the day. Needless to say, he wasn't in a jovial mood when Steven and Summer saw him when he got up from his evening nap. He did "lighten up" a bit - after Mark played hide-n-seek and I held him upside down.

Anyway, the treat for me was the coffee that they brought me!! They had a friend go to Seattle and bring Steven some coffee beans from the original Starbucks --- (many fond memories for me!!). Since they don't have a grinder, he gave the coffee to me :o) I'm sure I'll be giving him back half or so of the coffee after I grind it - but - it certainly did bring a big smile to my face.

Don't worry, Matthew, I get cranky when I don't get to sleep long enough, too! (And that was Mommy, not Caleb saying that!) :) Don't Sundays really throw off the schedule?
