Yesterday we went to Michael’s. The instant joy that comes across Mara’s face the moment she walks in side is just sick. It is hilarious. She loves it there so much. And this is a good thing. At least I know how to instantly turn any bad day into a good day. All I have to do is drive Mara to Michael’s and it will be OK. 

I don’t even think she needs to buy anything. I think she just needs to be there with all the beads, yarn, paint, stickers, stamps, paper, markers and the millions of other never ending craft supplies I can’t even begin to name.
