We're not having a great run of luck the last few days but I am grateful for tender mercies.
1. While waiting in the car for Rick to pick up dinner last night, two teenagers were messing around and one of them was pushed/fell into the passenger side of our car. I was completely caught off guard. I honked the horn and got out of the car. They just continued walking and laughing. They didn't even turn around to look until they were down the block. I'm grateful that the damage to the car wasn't worse and that me and Simon weren't hurt. They put a slight indentation in the passenger-side door.
2. Simon grazed his head on a painted cinder block at church today. I'm grateful that it wasn't worse than it was.
3. Piper slammed her finger in the car door this afternoon. It didn't break the skin but it's still swollen and will definitely be bruised for a while. I'm grateful that it's not broken and that I've learned that I need to be the one to close her door from now on.
4. Citrus-glazed salmon and roasted potatoes for dinner. We've had it before but tonight Piper declared it her favorite dinner ever. That girl loves superlatives.
5. Simon's kisses and cuddles. He was playing with another baby at church today and he put his arms around her and just leaned in with his head down on her shoulder for a hug. He's learned to give kisses too if you ask for one. Simon has also learned to fold arms for prayer. If you tell him to fold his arms, he will and is very proud of himself. Now just to work on keeping them folded for the duration.

Well, you've got a good attitude. I'd probably be complaining.
Good job on the blog catch-up. That's a lot of work! It's fun seeing all the pictures.
