What has made you genuinely smile recently?
Without a doubt, the biggest thing in this recently was the news that kid one was getting a near full academic scholarship to the university of Wisconsin. As I read about previously, he got word of this the night of his 18th birthday.
The truth is, I couldn’t possibly be prouder of him. Of course, he has made other achievements throughout his life: when he swam, when he was in gymnastics.

Another thing – or person in this case – that makes me smile is Veronica. I’ve been happy with the way things have going between her and I. A couple weeks, i initiated the where do we stand” discussion. She stopped short of saying she wanted to date exclusively. She said she’s enjoying “us” and wants to “see where things go”. I almost said that i wanted to see her exclusively, but decided not to push the matter.

I guess now that causal has been our status quo for the last several months, it’s to be expected. Seriously, am I having to convince myself that a casual relationship is a good thing?!
