YES #68 – Yes I will bike with my son in the 30 degree heat just because he wants to spend some time with Mommy.

YES #69 – Yes I will make plans to meet with the aforementioned estranged friend I haven’t spoken to in five years. It seems she’s eager to reuinte. This should be interesting…

YES #70 – Yes I will allow my daughter to sit close to her boy crush on the couch while they watch a movie together. But I stay reassuringly close at the same time. She’s only 13, after all.
