"I get to decide everything!"

I took a cruise once, and one of the best parts of that week long cruise was not having to plan anything. Once you get on the boat, you just do as you want. No worries about transportation, how to get to the next spot, what to cook, where to eat, etc. Everything is taken care of, and you get a week off of all the planning that comes along with daily life.

It was absolutely heavenly.

As a child, there is lots of waiting to make decisions. And even when you have wonderful parents who allow you to make decisions, you still only get to decide small things.

Well today, that is going to change. For Jadyn's birthday she gets a day with me where she gets to decide everything! Where to go shopping for her birthday present, where to go for lunch and where to eat our lunch.

I am super excited to see what she decides, and hopefully will have some pictures to post later today....

So, do you ever want a break for all the planning that goes into daily life? Or do you still get excited about planning your day?

She chose for me to drive Joe. Sheesh. And she got to bring her Clarice, who was wearing a crown. Normally, we don't take toys in the car...but today Jadyn thought that was a great idea.
