Mmmmmmm. Coffee.

I'm particularly enjoying my java today. In fact, I am on cup number two - one more than usual - only because it just seems so wonderful today. Even more wonderful is my nine-year-old son. He woke up, got dressed, took the dog out, got his own breakfast, put his bowl in the sink, and got his backpack all ready this morning. No stress. Heck, I didn't even have to ask him to do any of it except take the dog out, which he did right away! Time will tell if he is working up to asking for a visit to Chuck E Cheese, or maybe a R/C airplane or something else. But right now, I'm going to enjoy how incredible and responsible my child is, along with my second cup of joe.
