Last night was ugly. The baby was crying, my daughter wasn’t listening, and the adults were behaving like children.

This morning it was bad. Once again the baby was crying and my daughter was running late.

Then just as I was about to leave for work, my daughter ran up to me and gave me the most heart melting farewell. My son was peacefully eating, but paused to give me a big goofy grin as our eyes made contact. With the morning’s events finally slowing down, my wife caught her second wind.

I’ve just got to find something nice to do for my wife. She really deserves it.
