Catching up- second grade, "losing" teeth, Syria being bombed, and more
Tonight I'm up past midnight listening to you sleep. You still sleep with me most nights and sleep sideways in a king bed just to ensure you're touching my arm or foot or hair. That's not uncommon, but tonight was the first night I saw you process fear in a way I remembered feeling as a kid. Tonight the news broke in that we were bombing Syria due to ISIS. It's ugky, scary, and you held my arm in your arms until you finally just gave up. I told you we were safe, and you were rigid with fear it quiet until we sang a song. I promised to protect you... I'll akaays do that.
Second grade --- you got your first pair of glasses, you picked a red metal pair and I picked black glasses. You have had 2 teeth pulled and the top two are loose but haven't budged yet.
You are kind, your teacher we nicknamed kesha is a fan of yours. You are shy at times... Tonight I tried to get you to sell me on why you should get a monster high doll and you couldn't.. You also told me today that Hannah was a better dancer and you'd rather sing on beat.
Today you asked why I had to live apart from my pinky. I think you said it eloquently when you said..... Teenagers do some crazy things!
I'm proud of you! This summer you went to Boston with me and sourced with Khaden.... One of your candidates is being resourced and you think I'll owe 100.00 soon for an interview!!
Anthea and Dakota are your best friends... But you have lots of them.
We are thinking about selling the house as pinky is retiring oct 3rd and we may get a chance to move so I don't travel as much!
You continue to make me a better person each day--- love you SVJ.
