Every Wednesday Miss O and I meet her Daddy at work so I can facilitate a group that night. Daddy manages commercial real estate and there just happens to be a bakery on property. All week we talk about what color of cookie she is going to get and we take it to the rocking chairs outside Daddy's office to eat. It always starts out as "pink". This week she ended up with one decorated like a pumpkin. We also dance around the house to our "It's Cookie Wednesday" dance.
What impresses me most about my daughter is the way she lights up a room. His boss and the ladies in Daddy's office can't wait to see her. She always gets a sticker from her new BFF Jillian and says please and thank you to Miss Mary. This week she also scored a Ring Pop from Eric. Last week, an older gentleman was driving by and she waved and said "Glad to meet you". He parked his car and came over to talk. He was a recent widow and said something about her eyes reminded him of his wife. After talking for a bit, we realized I went to high school with his grandson so he called him on the spot and we had a nice chat. I hope that this girl can keep this kindness in her heart the rest of her life!!
So now you know what Cookie Wednesday is to us! What is your special day?
