I have had a tradition with Eva to take her for breakfast on her birthday. This year we had a very nice one and last year we had one that we would never forget. With Andrew I haven’t done this but am starting to make that a tradition also. So, this morning we had dentist appointments and they were very good. We were over in North Attleboro so we stopped at Northworks for a late lunch, a birthday brunch. He was good at breakfast.

After our meal we ran a few errands and Andrew was getting tired. He actually fell asleep in the carriage at Market Basket. Then he woke up and stood up in the seat so that I could carry him through the store. I did and he feel back asleep. One of my favorite feelings in the world is when my children fall asleep in my arms. That is not just because I’d get a few hours to myself. His warm little breath on my neck and how he’s gone so relaxed in my arms. It is one of my favorite moments that happens often.
