Mama is the Best Mama Ever!

The Sprouts discovered the notes shortly after we came home this afternoon.  EK has a two day professional development workshop in Ktown for the K-5 teachers, so is staying overnight, all expenses paid.  Before she left for town this morning, and after the Sprouts and I left for school and daycare, EK put up a number of post-it notes with messages on them for the Sprouts.  "Papa, come here!  Look at this!" were the excited calls from upstairs.  I could hear the sounds of exploring feet above my head in the kitchen, searching children a on post-it note treasure hunt.  When I went to look, huge smiles on both faces, with the knowledge that their Mama loves them a lot.  JK, of course, looking for the notes with his name and proudly pointing it out (he now reads his name and an odd assortment of other words).

And before bedtime tonight, FK quietly proclaimed, as she always does, "Mama is the best mama ever!"

Yes, she is.
