Magic I Saw this Week: The biggest magic of this week was seeing Nathaniel at Universal Studios. Magic magic magic. Seeing Nathaniel in his class with his friends. Seeing Nathaniel at Take your Kids to Work Day. Getting a desk of my own at work. Flowers, always flowers. And my magical husband who is always always kinder than anyone I know.
