this will make you gag in a few years, but i have to say it for you to understand where i'm coming from.
i love, love, love being around your dad. he's home with us every other friday, and it really is the best day of the week for me. it's like a stay at home vacation every single time.
i know that it would lose it's appeal if he were home with us every single day, but as of now, i can't even imagine that. a few weeks ago, we were all 3 going somewhere thursday night and i mentioned how excited i was that he was going to be home with us all day the following day.
and dad said something that i want you to remember. he said, "i love being off on those fridays. that's why i became a dentist. so i could work less and be home with my family more."
i actually had to look over at him to make sure he wasn't pulling my leg. but he wasn't. he was serious. and in a few years, you will realize how great of a response that is.
it's so nice for him to love us that much. we are so blessed. i never, ever want you to forget that. i know that as you grow older, you and dad will spend many a friday, fishing or hunting...or maybe even just browsing the bookstore. but i'm tagging along for that trip.
here is a picture i took of you two at the park on friday. just visiting. about the stream. and fish.
i love you so much, mommy.
