A Proud Moment.....

Today is a great day already. Aside from the fact that I have made it to 34, my oldest daughter, who is now fast becoming a moody teenager held the door open for her little sister as they went into school. This may seem a simple enough task, but for weeks Allison would run into the school with Emily running to catch up behind her, this is due to  Emily always, without fail, taking the time to give me a kiss and tell me she loves me before getting out of the van.....So, trying to instill good manners in my children, I have reminded Allison on several occations to hold the door for the running little sister behind her. Today I caught a glimpes of Allison remembering , a split second before Emily got to the door, to go back and hold it open for her. Allison gave me a knowing look and she saw my smile and thumbs up. The little things......I love them....best birthday gift.
