I picked my daughter up a little early from her last day of Volleyball camp because there was going to be a police training session on campus at Noon so the kids had to clear out before then. We went home for lunch and after that I ran a couple of errands while the kids stayed home. My daughter had a gift she needed to finish making for her friend's birthday party this evening. She taught herself how to crochet and she has been creating these beautiful flowers and cute octopi. She made an octopus for her friend while I was gone.
We all loaded up into the car to take her to the birthday party this evening and my son and I had a little dinner and movie "date." I had never seen the movie "Onward" before but my son recorded it when it was on TV awhile back. Ita really cute movie and much to my surprise, I actually teared up at the end. Surprising for me these days - I used to cry so easily - even at some of the more touching commercials. But MS has really robbed me of a lot of my ability to cry. My son was pretty surprised, sorry the movie made me cry but also glad, I think, that I liked the movie enough to get involved emotionally in it. He used to like me to read the books to him that made me cry so he could comfort me. He is such a sweet boy and he's so good at providing comfort to people who are sad. You should see him with little kids who are crying. He had a tender heart and is excellent at cheering people up - especially the very young and the very old - as well as his Mom. 🥰
I'm looking forward to seeing what tomorrow holds!
