Maggie: “my first best was when Miller dunked her head under the water in the tub during her bath tonight. But my real best was when Wilson said, ‘When I wake up tomorrow and get dressed, can I put on some cool clothes? That way when I play guitar I’ll look cool.'”

Phil: “mine was getting to see my work buddies again after a week off, but also when I got to work on the Lego VW with Wilson after work. It was also fun to see Miller getting pulled around in the cozy coupe by Wilson when I got home.”

Wilson: “mine was getting to play with Nathan while Mom exercized.”

Maggie: “getting to take a quick nap.”  yeah, it’s been a pretty crazy & busy week.

Phil: “Mine was Wilson taking a nap on top of me while I watched a movie, but it was also a lot of fun doing the Mentos + Diet Coke routine this afternoon.”

Wilson: “my best was getting my new light!”  Phil spent most of the day installing a new Formula 1-style pendant lamp in Wilson’s room, and a little dimmer switch by his bed so he can turn out the light after saying prayers.

Maggie: “mine was getting cleaned up after Christmas.”  Very much needed after 2 days of the kids rearranging the house with their new goods.

Phil: “mine was also getting the new light installed, especially after having had it for a YEAR now!”  The trick was learning how to get into the attic.

Maggie: “mine was getting to see Ashley, Andy & Adam.”

Phil: “mine was also getting to see the family safely arrived & eating dinner with them.”

Wilson: “my best was going to work with Dad.” Bomgar hosted a Christmas party for the kids this afternoon, so Wilson hung around afterwards & helped me wrap a few things up before taking the rest of the week off.

Maggie: “I got started on the last painting that needs to get done before Christmas.”

Phil: “mine was working with Wilson. He was a big help with putting an old appliance back together.”

Maggie: “eating lunch with the family was nice.” Indeed it was, and very welcome by me too after singing at two services.

Phil: “I really enjoyed singing Christmas songs in the choir this morning.” It was a lot of time well invested.
