Thank You So Much

Been meaning to post for a few weeks.
I took Ali to see The Muppet Movie.  It was really cute.  She had a great time.  Just her and I in the dark of the theater eating contraband candy.  She whispered to me four times, "Thank you so much."  I thought the first time she said it she just really was enjoying the film.  But after the third time, realized she was expressing her joy at being alone with me, something that doesn't happen as much as we'd like. 
When I hear the muppet theme song, tears come to my eyes.  I watched the show when it ran with my brother and Daddy.  But it was that warm fuzzy feeling, knowing my family was fine, my grandparents lived up the block and my aunts were close by too.
