p.d.a. = public display of appreciation

Today Eben came home on his lunch break just to clean and organize Monroe's room so that it would be pleasant for an upcoming playdate. I was so impressed with him for this, I wanted to shout it from the rooftops. Then I thought shouting it on Monroe's blog would be better. Our neighbors probably wouldn't appreciate the story enough to be charmed out of their natural annoyance at someone yelling from the top floor breezeway.
