Super Mom

Dear Diary,

Last night I did the "supermom" thing by camping out in a line up with my teenager and his friend so that he could have a Nintendo Wii for his Birthday. They are extremely rare to get a hold of this Christmas, and seeing that we were celebrating his birthday, I decided that we could just move the sleepover to the local mall.

We got there around 3 am and the other early bird customers arrived at 5 am. Only three of us got the Wii, the other latecomers (5:30 am) were out of luck

Wow, I never knew that this devotion to my children would be an attractive attribute in the eyes of my husband, but it was. :) He couldn't stop hugging this morning and telling me how great I was. Makes me want to pull out the Scrabble, the Monopoly, and every puzzle in the house to spend some more quality time with the kids.

My husband just finished doing the grocery shopping and he's on his way home with an iced cap for the special "mom" in his life. This is great.
