Rituals


Oftentimes after school, C-man and I will stop at our favorite coffee shop to pick up smoothies. It's not an every day thing, so not necessarily a routine.  But we do it just often enough that he is so happy and excited, bouncing up and down on his tip-toes along the counter while the barrista does her work.  So while it isn't a routine, it is a bit of a ritual, if you will...  Him getting excited.  Me falling even more in love, if that's possible, with those wiggly little fingers and squirmy little toes.  I love these times so much, seeing his pure joy and anticipation of something he loves, I cannot even accurately describe it.  Suffice it to say, it's one of the best parts of my day.
