While Mom's Away...

Last Friday I had a YW overnighter at a cabin in Heber. It happened to be the same night as the school's free Classic Skating night. Jacee and Jackson had been looking forward to this night for some time. I tried to prep them that they probably wouldn't get to go because daddy had to drive to Logan early in the morning, build a house all day, and then drive all the way home again and he would probably be too tired. Well...being the great dad he is, John took them to Classic Skating. All three kids by himself after a looooong day at work.

On the way into the rink, Maddie was running and tripped in the parking lot. She had her hands in the pockets of her coat so the only thing she had to catch herself was - her face!

John said she sat on his lap for a while but then seemed to recover and spent the rest of the evening on the bounce houses. She is none the worse for wear and tells me periodically, "My face feels better mom."

So - overall it was a successful outing with dad and the kids. I'm feeling pretty lucky to have such a great family. Lover you honey.
