Dear Lili,
Back in the day when your father and I were first dating I used to try and ‘play it cool’ when I saw him walking up the street to meet me like, “Oh hey…” – as if I hardly noticed him. The truth was – more often than not I was beside myself with excitement that he was coming over to hang out with me.
The same thing happens – the same feeling – when you have kids. Even better – your fan base has now expanded.
Many nights you and I stall to wait for Dad’s arrival. Our mission – to see him come down the block after a long day of working hard for us – and for him to see our two shining faces peer out the window – and watch him break into a smile.
Our little family – so not playing it cool.
ok, that really made me cry. xo
