Sweet

After Brent came home from work he told me he had a some lingering office items that needed to be taken care of immediately. His job allows him to leave work so he can be home by 6PM on the dot, even when it's busy. However, every now and again Brent has to bring a little work home with him.

We decided to divide and conquer. He felt he could handle Ireland if I could get Liesel out of the house. I decided to take her to Portillo's for dinner where she noshed on fries and a chocolate malt (I'm such a horrible mother!). She was so excited she chattered endlessly. She even flirted with the guy in the booth behind us. Out of nowhere the following conversation ensued:

"Mom? Did Dad kiss you?"

This bears some explanation. Whenever we pick up Brent from the train station he jumps in the car and immediately gives me a kiss on the cheek. Ireland was sleeping when his train arrived so I asked him to walk home. We kissed in the hallway where Liesel didn't see.

"Yes he did!"

"Ooooooooh!" *thoughtful pause* "He LOVES you Mom!!!"

Too true :)
