Excited Stage Whisper from Stage Left

Well who knew how “excited” getting a package would be!? This morning at 6:50 a.m.,
Jackson came running into our room and in a loud stage whisper he said “I’m awake for a SPECIAL DAY!!!” Today was the day his coal loader was on it’s way.
Yesterday I did the tracking and then showed Jacks a map of the United States. The coal loader was in Colorado traveling to Texas. We also looked up pictures of FedEx trucks so he knew exactly what was going on. A BIG truck (“Oh! I LOVE big trucks!” he said) was on it’s way with the precious cargo.
This morning it came. (thank GOODNESS!)
It was very exciting indeed. Mia got her special surprise as well.
Mia is amazing. We were gone for a solid 4 hours this morning running errands and eating lunch. She did not have ANY accidents! She used the public restroom with success at Chili’s. I am so proud!

Look at this psychotic-ly excited smile (yes, I know that isn’t a word, haha!)

Mia is thinking “Wow! Look at this thing! It’s pink with PRINCESSES on it! Pure loveliness!”









Update: mia had another 100% dry day! We were also gone for 3 hours in the evening attending a special Romania Missions Night at church for my mom. Being gone so much I thought she would for sure forget, but she even asked her 7 year old cousin Maren to take her while they were playing! She went 3 times in public yesterday and had a perfect potty trained day!
