My daughter Noelle is so kind and caring. We had a date night this week and her sister Megan was feeling a little left out. (Of course Megan just got to go to the Jaguars/Broncos game with me so there really was no call for that.) On the way to get ice cream at Josh and John's Noelle was debating where to go for fun and games. She really wanted to go to "Itz" but debated it because, "Megan really likes Itz so we should wait to go there until she can go too."
I told her that this was her night and she should go where she wanted. Without too much wait she decided that Itz was the place.
We had a great time talking and coloring at Josh and John's and then went over to Itz (a pizza and games place). She led me all around the place since she had been there before at a friend's birthday party. Her favorite part was riding the race cars. They slowly move down a straightaway and then whip around the corner like lightning. I have to admit it was fun. But mostly it was fun watching the smile on her face and hearing the screams of delight.
We went from game to game winning tickets for about an hour and then went to the "store" to trade them for toys. Noelle spent some time choosing something and then even more time trying to decide what to get for her sisters. She only had enough tickets for some of the smaller toys but she was thinking about others just the same. I helped her with the math and she was finally satisfied that she had chosen just the right toys and colors for Megan and Riesa.
When we got home she excitedly showed her mom all that she got and told her about our night. What a wonderful week I had.
You know, business wasn't great this week but I got to spend 6 or so hours with Megan going to the Jags game on Sunday and then a few hours with Noelle too. How can anyone complain about that?
