"Yes!"



We only eat Dutch babies on birthdays and Christmas morning.  But this morning I was asked,  "Can we have them today, Mom?"




There was something in the question, something in the smile, something that reminded me that these days together will not last forever.  What am I waiting for?




 And so I said yes.

I really don't want to waste a day. And sometimes that means saying yes. I am glad today was one of those days.

Yes is almost always the right answer in life. What a nice story!

You pack so much story into a few words and photos.
You are a rarity.
