This evening I went grocery shopping, by myself. I put Olive to bed and left Jeff and Addison watching Snow White and went to the grocery store. I loved it. I didn't have to re-track back through the grocery store when I realized that I missed something because I was looking for a pacifier as I walked passed it, or because I was chatting with Addison. It really is the simple things that I am learning to appreciate through this process. Grocery shopping in a cart that I don't have to squeeze the food around a massive infant seat or reminding someone that if they are good they can have a vanilla milk from Starbucks. Not a bad Friday night.
God, thank you for aligning my day that I was not able to get to the store this afternoon. Thank you for giving me an hour and a half in my night to enjoy this usually dreaded task. Thank you for continuing to shed blessings upon me. Amen.
