All Pro Dads

Full disclosure, I did not want to go to All Pro Dads yesterday.

It’s before school and I never want to get out of bed.

It was raining.

And you know – all the people I am usually trying to avoid. 🤣

But y’all wanted to go and I’m glad we went.

They served breakfast and talked about gratitude.

The curriculum was interactive between parents and children, so we were constantly asking each other questions and doing activities together.

At one point, us parents were asked to tell our children five things we were proud of them for.

Y’all just beamed when I did.

Maybe we’ll go again next month?

I love you.

Kissing Girls

H, it was raining when we woke up today.

The morning’s chaos was soon over and we were all out the door to school.

We dropped K off as usual, but we were running behind so I didn’t get to walk her to her classroom door.

It rained here and there as we drove to the other campus but finally stopped as we got there.

I helped you carry your “jazz flute” across the parking lot.

We said our goodbyes near the door and then I leaned over and kissed your forehead.

The instant I did, the sky exploded in rain.

I mean, it went from not raining at all to absolutely pouring in less than a second.

And it all happened the instant I kissed you. 🥰

We both screamed and ran our opposite ways.

My word.

I have kids to drop off. I got work I have to do today.

And I’m just playing around about town kissing girls in the rain.

I love you.

Just Worried

K, you said the absolute sweetest thing the other day.

H was headed to Callie’s house to swim before going to Nerf Wars and Hazel’s church.

I knew all that, but when I came to pick you up from school, H was already gone.

I wanted to check and make sure she got where she was supposed to go – but before I could stop you – you ran to the back of the school and started asking all the teachers “Where is my sister?!” 🤣

We talked to Ms. Butler though and she assured us everything was good.

You didn’t say much on the way back to the car.

I asked if you were ok and you said.

Yeah, I was just worried about H. I know we fight a lot and push each other’s buttons. But she is my best friend. I love her so much.

My girl. 🥲

I love you.
