I Always Have My Family!

Although I'm encouraged to write on this blog by my beautiful and wise wife (who is an ever increasingly prolific "mommy-blogger"), I find that I am not always motivated to do so.  I am most likely to write when I lose a case.... Hence the infrequent posts:)  But I lost a bench trial today.  That is when both sides agree to let a judge hear the case without a jury.  Presumably the judge knows the law and won't get sidetracked by stupid issues.  I should have gone with a jury!!!

Anyway the case was very minor and when I was done I called home to vent.  My 4 year old answered the phone.  

Her:  "Hi Daddy!  It's me!"

Me: Hi hun.  Is Mommy there?

Her:  She's busy right now.  Daddy?  Have you had a bad day?

Me:  Yeah.  Daddy is kind of having a bad day.  I lost my case today.

Her (in most sympathetic little girl tone):  Ohhhhh!  But don't worry Daddy, you'll find it                                                                                         tomorrow!

Is that not the cutest thing you've ever heard?  She is so literal but sooo sincere.  It made me laugh and cry a little.   I really needed that.
