Day 20 - Experiences

I don't know that I noticed anything "surprising" today. Here are a few things I did experience, however.

The joy of seeing Jacob loved on by two sets of grand parents and his aunt.

Meeting a new friend at the coffee shop. He passed on some fatherly advice. "Don't get too attached to any one age of your children. Enjoy each new stage as they come along."

Jacob's first haircut (to be honest, I guess that's something he experienced).

Tuning in to the last full day of competition, the U.S. won some medals at the Olympics...and experienced a few disappointments.

Mom's spaghetti and the sounds of family around the dinner table - and the smile they bring.

Low-fat chocolate fudge ice cream.
