I miss sleeping in on Saturday mornings. My brain just won’t cooperate. However, this is still my favorite time of the week. I typically get out of bed just long enough to grab a Diet Pepsi, my Macbook, and my Kindle. I love Saturday mornings.

This morning was special, however, because I had promised Jackson that he could open his birthday presents today. Turns out he will be with his dad on Monday (boo!), which is his actual birthday, and with his party being tomorrow, today seemed like a good day to do it. So he opened everything this morning and he was so pleased. He was jumping around, squealing, talking excitedly about how much he loved everything, thanking me, giving me many hugs and kisses, and telling me he loves me so much. Day made!

I was right about getting the iPad. I need to learn to trust my instincts. 

We are very excited about our plans for today/tonight, but those won’t start for a while. In the meantime, I’m going to do my Saturday stuff, and try not to let all the evil in the world get me too down. 

Because there is so much good as well. So much.
