Dec. 20th, 2015 10:12 amFriday evening Gwen and I went to the grocery store, and came back with a special treat for our long trip (a box of tictacs). She was relating about how she'd get to have them for second breakfast: "and I will have second breakfast on the bus, and second breakfast on the train, and second breakfast on the aeroplane." She paused and confided in me, "I'm very excited about tomorrow." Then she asked: "Are you excited about tomorrow?"
"Yes, I am!"
"Me too. I'm the most exciting child ever."
Awwww.....
[[It was a long trip: we got the first bus at 6:45am, and got into our hotel at 9:30pm (with a 1 hour time change), but we survived without any fights or major meltdowns, and we're in a pretty cushy hotel. Huge nice bed for Joel and I, and a completely separate room for Gwen, with a bed and a desk and an angel and a huge comforter. And luxury hotel towels are even more luxurious when you're four, and they're taller than you are.]]
