A little slice of heaven

Tonight i was scheduled to have both of the kids. However due to Ben being invited to a classmate's Friday evening birthday party, it was just Emily and I for 3 hours.

The downside (one of many) of the current situation is that when i do see the kids i see both of them and no longer get to have one on one time with each of them. I miss it terribly.

I was prepared to do whatever Emily wanted this evening. When i asked her it turned out that her hearts desire was to go to Wendy's (at least a change from Burger King every Monday, Thursday, Monday, Wednesday, Monday etc) plus my perpetually empty wallet breathed a sigh of relief.

We got our food, her's chicken nuggets and oranges, mine a half pound of burger and a side salad (all the calories are in the fries after all) and just talked.

We talked about puppies and frozen pizza and school and forks and Camp Rock and her scribbling all over Ben's "secret" papers in his room (awesome) and more puppies and the list goes on and on. I sat there amazed at the random, ramblings of a 4 year old and was absolutely intoxicated, in love.

I've said it before and i'll say it till i drop. Benjamin James Blackmore and Emily Skye Blackmore are incredible. A slice of heaven come to earth, a blessing that i don't know what i did to deserve but will gladly accept and never want to let go of.

Love it. Goodnight.
