Since I was in high school, I’ve been keeping track of what I like to call, “A+ days,” days when everything is so awesome, it’s worth remembering. I think that people are too likely to remember bad stuff, and forget about good stuff, so I note it when I have a really outstanding day.

Yesterday got an A+. In the morning we took the kids to the Experimental Farm, where we saw newborn baby lambs, pigs, and horses. The kids had a great time playing in the museum part (where they have interactive displays and toy food, and where they bake real raisin bread, yum).

After we all went out for a family brunch at Denny’s, and the kids were super-well behaved and ate great. With full tummies we headed home for a nice nap, and and I watched some stupid TV and puttered around a bit. When the kids got up we took them to the park and it was a little chillier than we thought, but both of them just loved being outside and had a great time on the swings.

Then we came home and had a good dinner, and horsed around with the kids for a bit with much squealing and giggling, and then it was bedtime. And then and I flaked for a while and chatted for a while and went to bed early. All good!
