November 7

This afternoon, the kiddos and I went to the dentist. The (not-so) small miracle is that no one had a single cavity, so that was certainly a noteworthy blessing. But I had a different favorite moment:

When the time came to pick an item from the treasure box, Brady picked this ring. I have no idea what prompted it since he's never before expressed any interest in anything even remotely girly (seriously, I'd peg him as more likely to become a series regular on WWF Smackdown). But he was super pleased with his prize. So for that moment of finding joy in an unexpected place, I'm thankful.
