Lunch with Jacob and Kaitlyn

Before I cane to Colorado I had decided I wanted to spend individual time with each person. I took Kaitlyn(10) out to lunch yesterday. She picked Sushi which was fine with me. Here in Evergreen they have a Sushi place in a gas station. We found out it was closed until Monday so we went to Sushi Win here in town. She wanted crunchy shrimp and I got cucumber and avocado with eel sauce. She told me her dad got some eel sushi before and that he likes to get weird stuff. We shared both and they were very good. I don't think Kaitlyn had any wasabi and she didn't think she would like the ginger, but she tried it and decided it was ok. I had hot ginger tea (which I didn't think through with having the pickled ginger, but it had a little honey in it so it worked). Kaitlyn ordered an apple iced tea. It came in a clear stemmed glass with 3 apple slices. It was not overly sweet and had a slight cinnamon flavor. We had a good lunch and good conversation. I found out she likes math, but doesn't like music class because they just do kid songs. She had started playing violin and seemed excited about that. Her favorite special was art. She loves drawing and coloring like some other girls her age that I know :).

I had taken Jacob(5) out the day before and shared with both of them (reminded them really) that God made them and loved them and had things he wanted them to do - " For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works,which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them." Ephesians 2:10.
Jacob and I went to Subway and he got a kids meal with ham, Doritos, and chocolate milk. He wanted ketchup and mustard on his sandwich, but they don't have ketchup. As part of the kids meal he got to pick out a "Guardians of the Galaxy" backpack-pretty cool! He was excited about that and wanted to use it as a lunch bag this year (but he's only going to be there for a couple of hours a day). I got my favorite- the sweet onion teriyaki chicken. He was enjoying his chocolate milk so much, I decided I had to have one also. I had told him that I like to shake up my milk to get foam (or bubbles as he called it). When Tonya picked us up, I had just finished shaking up mine, and proceeded to drip it all over one of my favorite t-shirts. Hopefully it won't stain.
