The best thing happened Saturday! Yes, we went to Wicked, but that is not even the best thing. The best thing was that Ada didn't cry at all while we were gone! Hooray. You know you are too much into being Mom when a Broadway musical takes second to the fact that your children were happy while you left them with someone else. No, for real- the play was awesome, we really enjoyed it and the theater was beautiful. It was so fun to be on a special date with Stephen and on our own. The Christensons watched Ada and Beth and Nathan watched Odessa. One kid instead of 2 means half the work for the poor people we leave them with! ha ha Did I mention Ada didn't cry? Oh, just checking. We were so glad we took the opportunity while we are in Chicago to see one of the big shows they have here. I think it's actually leaving in July, so we are doubly glad. Thank you, thank you to our babysitters, especially Beth and Nathan whom we had to call last minute when Odie's babysitter got sick. And a huge thank you to Danica for teaching my lesson on Sunday. Going to Wicked seems like a lame reason to not be able to prepare a lesson, but it was actually the crazy week of kid sickness and Stephen's thesis that tipped me over the edge. Wicked is a great musical, if you get the chance, go see it (just not on a weekend you need to prepare a church lesson)!
