It was a good day. The boys took me to dinner at a Japanese steakhouse. It was Gabe and Chi's first time. They liked it. Chi was really tired so he was grouchy at first, but then he got his bowl of rice and he pronounced it "good." He refused all the food except for the rice though. Part of the meal was a choice of green tea ice cream or sherbet at the end. Matt and I choose the ice cream and the boys choose the sherbet, no real surprise. The green tea ice cream was very good and boys liked it better than the sherbet and they both wound up taking over our ice cream, the turkeys!
They got me a guide for Photoshop Elements because I was struggling to remember how to do things and getting stumped when something was different from my memory of Photoshop. So, I'm excited to get somewhere on some projects. Gabe also picked a pair of earrings for me. They are very nice, but it's almost just nicer to see his pride in picking out something he thought I'd like.
This week we had International Night with Gabe's class. The kids all had to learn about a country and present their country (Gabe did Italy) and we brought food from our country to taste. We made Italian style pizza. But surprisingly people did not eat as much as we expected so we have lots of pizza leftover. Oh, well. It's in the freezer, and it's good. Perhaps I don't say it enough, but Gabe is a good kid. :)
Chi was silly today. He wanted to use his little flashlight to look in my mouth and up my nose and in my ears. Then he started shining it on himself. Mouth, nose, ears, hands...and then down his pants. "Chi, you don't need to do that," I said. "No, Mom. It's dark," he informed me. Oh, of course. It's dark inside your pants. Duh? :) Just exploring, I supposed.
I was happy just to have a nice day with all my boys. And thanks to everyone for the birthday wishes. They were much appreciated.
