Jam and a Crab

Today's not-so-favorite moments included . . .

. . . Daniel being super cranky after a short nap in the car.  Fortunately I've discovered that it helps to put him in the double stroller with Anna and go for a walk.

Today's favorite moments included . . .

. . . making strawberry jam with Mom and my sister.

. . . eating said jam on toast for lunch and pancakes for dinner.

. . . shopping for foamy soap with Joy at Bath and Body Works.  It was fun to sniff a dozen different scents and decide on two we wanted to try (Sweet Pea and Japanese Cherry Blossom; White Citrus is a perennial favorite, too).

. . . hugging my sweetheart.
