***JOY IN HIS EYES...

Trinity was invited to a birthday party today after school at the skating rink. Kohl my 5 years old son came with me to drop her off and wait while I put her skates on her. His eyes lit up while he watched the other kids skate. I felt bad for him because he loves to skate and we don't make it to the rink that often but the other kids have been attending quite a few skating party in the past couple of months and his younger brother went skating this morning, so he was feeling a bit left out. Alyssa's mother came by and invited Kohl to skate with the kids, he was so excited but I had things that needed to be done and back to pick Trinity up to take her to dance classes. The look of disappointment was to much for me. I drove Kohl back home, got his skates and headed back to the rink. To see the joy in his eyes was well worth putting off a few errands. He later joined the party upstairs where he had hot dogs, chips, pop and cupcakes before it was time to go. As we left I heard him say, "Thanks Trin this was a good party!...I even got a treat bag!" Sometimes it's the little things that matter :0)
