The Simple Joys in Life

When I picked Ann Charlotte up in the car pool line on her first full day at Hutchison it went like this:

Ann Charlotte:  "Mom, I LOVE Hutchison!"

Mommy:  "Ann Charlotte, that makes me so happy!"

Ann Charlotte: (before I could even ask how her day was) "I ate my cake first!"

Mommy:  What?

Ann Charlotte:  I ate my cake first AND had chocolate milk!

Oh, the simple things in life that make us happy!  Dessert first and freedom from your mom dictating when you can eat dessert (only after your veggies :).  She then proceeded to say, "I am so happy you picked Hutchison for me!"  Confirmation that I needed to hear.  I think she is going to have a great year!
