Surprises!

Our Daddy came home at 7:30am Friday morning...a whole 12 hours earlier than expected! I was sitting at the dining room table when I heard keys jiggle the door locks...I sat there frozen, thinking of a reasonable explanation...Noah gasped in excitement and Caleb was stumbling over himself to get to the door. Lo and behold when the door opened it was our Daddy! The stinker drove 8 hours at night and didn't tell me (I would have protested); apparently his class has finished the night before. Yay!

As soon as Daddy walked through the door, Noah was back to his old self. :) He sang in the car all the way to school...our car rides had been pretty quiet all week. And when we picked him up from school he was goofing around with his classmates when previously he seemed pretty withdrawn at pick-up time. I asked his teacher if he'd been especially quiet this week and she quickly commented that he had.

But all is well in our house now...Daddy's home, the house is a mess, and lots of noise and excitement all around. :)
