Welcome back!

Happy Friday! I think this has been one of the longest weeks in quite some time.  Maybe because it’s the week before a holiday; those always seem long.  Or maybe it’s because I procrastinated on a major project last week and am suffering the consequences this week.  Either way, I am welcoming Friday as I’m sure everyone else is too!

I’m especially welcoming it because I’m so very excited about Picking My Afro.  With this Friday being a holiday for many, there’s no school and my day care has closed too; which means, I’m bringing my son with me to work.  I’m blessed to have a very wonderful manager and not many people will be in the office so he’ll go practically unnoticed.  The fact that he’s nine and all he really cares about is his Nintendo DS and reading books, only aids to the anticipated invisibility.

Some people would find taking their child to work with them a headache, and for some with good reason.  For me, I’m so excited! I love introducing my son to people.  He’s so personable, and funny (yes I’m biased, I know!) you can’t help but love him.  And since our time together seems to always fly by, I’m happy to have him with me for the day.

So what about you? It’s Friday; another week has come and is almost gone. Have you Picked You Afro yet? What have you done to put a well deserved smile on your face?
