K mamacita,

You were so sweet to me today.

T got sick this morning and threw up, so I took you and H to church and Sunday school.

Afterwards, I took y’all to Whataburger for lunch where we all got chicken baskets.

We brought mom home a cheeseburger and then all went for a walk after we gathered ourselves.

We walked to the “yellow park” around the corner.

Anyway.

You asked me to push you on the swing when we arrived. I did and you requested that I sing while pushed.

You specifically asked for Amazing Grace, and I Believe I Can Fly (by R. Kelly). Ha!

As I pushed, you told how glad you were that you got me as a daddy.

You said that you loved me so much, and that you were thankful I was so kind and patient and loving to you.

I’m not sure what I did to deserve the deluge of compliments – but I’ll take them!

Later, you and H were fighting and I took you on a drive to separate y’all (you were just tired).

We stopped at Menchies and ate frozen yogurt: Vanilla ice cream, no toppings.

You fell asleep on the way home as I held your hand.

Later you were feeling so partial to me, you sat in my lap for half of dinner.

I love you.

-Dad
