Cheesecake

Since last week's post about the "incident", Jake has been completely back to normal. He saw some ripped pages from one of his books in the garbage a few days later (one of the casualties from the tantrum) and seemed pretty upset about it. But, my travels are over and now we're all looking forward to our big road trip to Memphis this weekend! We're calling it a "work trip" because I think Jake has felt left out from all of my work trips, so I told him we're taking the whole family on the next "work trip". I'm even going to make him turn in travel receipts so he gets the full experience.

In the above picture, Jake and Sadie are in Cheesecake Heaven, enjoying leftovers from my birthday cheesecake. Thanks Mom! And yes, Sadie is wearing a tiara. Earlier tonight she had on a pink princess cone hat thingy. She loves to accessorize. Jake is dressed up for the Mother's Day Tea Party his class hosted today. Ali said it was so much fun and that Jake was the cutest kid there. The story she couldn't wait to tell me was that Jake's teacher asked all the kids who their best friend was, and all the kids named someone in the class. But Jake looked around the room and said "Mommy!" And so he got cheesecake tonight.

if you really want him to get the full experience, make him fill out the vouchers in the E2 Travel System. He'll never want to be involved in another work trip again.
