I love to go to Panera Bread for breakfast with Nathan some mornings after we drop Evie off at school. (He always chooses Tim Hortons, but once in a while he will agree to my favorite place instead!) We were there Thursday morning, munching bagels and playing a silly drawing game that we had made up ages ago, which somehow turned into me writing words and him sounding them out. (He is surprisingly good at that.)
At some point the gentlemen a table or two away turned to me to compliment Nathan. Nothing makes a mama happier than someone saying nice things about her child. We then started talking about his grandchildren, and you could see the love in his smile as he talked about them.
Note to self: Feel free to tell someone when you notice something great about their child, and also feel free to talk a little about your own with a smile.
