My, How Times Have Changed!

When Maggie was an infant, she had a little bit of a colicky phase, and it always seemed that she was EXTREMELY fussy the minute Matt walked in the door.   When he would call during the day, I would promise him that she was having such a great day, and that she was very content.  Then, it would never fail, the minute he walked in the door, the flood gates would open.

Yesterday, I called Matt around 6:00 (He has had to work late this week), and told him that we were unraveling....not that it would change the time he got home, but it just helps to let your spouse know how much you are suffering.=)  Kerri Grace and I have been fighting a cold so by the end of the day, we were both tired of feeling bad.  I think Maggie was really tired of hanging out with the sick girls.  I had started dinner so Maggie decided to test all the bounderies, and Kerri Grace did not want to be put down for a second.  Finally, I had dinner made, and both girls were eating and pretty happy.  So, in walks Daddy!!!  Both girls lit up with complete joy!  They were both done eating in a matter of minutes, were sitting on the floor, silently playing their own individual games, and Matt and I were having a quiet dinner.  Hmmmm....Matt laughed as I explained to him that we really were having kind of a rotten late afternoon.  Oh well.  I will take this over the prior any day!
