Breakfast For Dinner

-

When Papa is out of town, one of the kids favorite things to do is eat cereal for dinner. I don't mind at all and I don't feel bad about it either!!! We have oatmeal, grits, cereal, top ramen, etc...
To most people these meals aren't considered acceptable for dinner....but they are for us and we love'em! I sometimes do these dinners when Matt is in town and I've had a rough day...I feel bad because he's a meat-eater but I know he doesn't mind.
It's a great money saver too and we rarely get complaints from the children. I am a lucky mom!
We can't wait until Pop gets back from Saudi Arabia. I'm sure he'll have a lot of fun stories to tell.

With that being the only problem I decided to buy the better rug and spend the same amount I would have on the other one. But I got a much better product. So, once again, I got something other than what Matt and I had agreed upon. But he was happy with the selection. It's a good thing my friend came with me! Next purchase....two chairs for either end of the table.

Today in class the lady from the front desk came in with this pretty arrangement of flowers and said they were from Matt for my birthday. He wanted to make it a spectacle in front of everyone so that I would feel special. After the gym I met some friends at the Ninja Steakhouse where they cook the food in front of you. The children were entertained! It was a yummy lunch and I was happy to get to do something out of the ordinary. After that I came home, put Ira and Selah down for a nap and tried to take one myself. After all, it is my birthday! Besides, I told a friend I'd teach her kickboxing class tonight. So I'm going to need some extra energy. So, the day has been nice for me. Only one thing has bugged me all day....Selah has acquired this hideous screech. She just belts out a high pitched ...
