Beautiful Teeth

This is random, I know.

But I just have to say, K, that you have the absolute best smile of perfect little baby teeth.

It’s a mouth full of these straight beautiful teeth.

These picture-perfect – little baby chompers.

Ugh – but I know it’s fleeting.

You are going to be five in a few months. And soon after, your baby teeth will start to go.

I wish you could stay four for just a little longer.

My biscuit.

I love you.

Work With You

H, you had an orthodontist appointment yesterday.

Coming out of it, I looked at my watch and noticed it was almost 4 PM.

When I suggested we blow of the rest of the day and head home, you insisted:

No, I want to go to work with you!

So we went.

While I worked, you watched movies on my phone.

You ate animal crackers, got a Sprite from the break room, and we even stopped by to see Leandra.

But when you got home you bragged about it all to K.

So today, K, I got you from school at 3:45 an took you to work with me too.

And we did all of the same things…

I think all the interest in my work was brought on by my short time left.

I have been at ARMtech/AgriSompo for nearly 8 years!

I can’t believe tomorrow is my last day – it’s surreal.

But I am so glad that I got to share a glimmer of it with you.

I love you.

Sounded Like A Meow

I farted yesterday.

It was kind of a funny squeak.

H, you heard it.

And when you did, you looked at me like I had said something profane.

You asked:

Was that a cat?

I said “No. Sorry I tooted.”

To which you said that it sounded like a “MEOW.”

Oh my goodness we both got to laughing so hard.

I just love laughing with you.

I love you.
