To Be Loved

Tonight I spent the evening having dinner and watching Good Eats with the kids. Eric was in a good mood and just kept close to me. At one point, he looked at me and said, "Aunt Chris, we are going to miss you." I said, "Eric, where are you going?" "To California on Thursday." he said. So, I got a big grin on my face and said, "Guess what Eric?" "What?" "I am going to California on Friday." His look was so adorable as he thought through what I said for a second then he threw his arms around himself in a hug and said, "We are going to see you in California!" Now that can make anyone's day. I am loved by a five year old. Does it get better than that?
