Overheard

I made Princess N's lunch this morning. The past two mornings, she has been up early for basketball tryouts. I put in an extra sandwich on those days so she could eat a small breakfast before the tryouts and then have something closer to the beginning of the school day.

This morning, as we got into the truck, Princess N peeked in her lunch box.

She said, "Yay! Two sandwiches! Oh wait... Never mind." Her disappointment  was clear. As I got out of the backseat after putting Duchess L in her car seat, Princess N added, "Thank you anyway."

It may not be the most enthusiastic thank you I have ever received, but it was sweet that she still said thanks, even though she was quite disappointed.
