You’re a happy little dude, man. You love to climb all over stuff now. As of this week you can climb on and off the couch - it’s really kind of amazing. You love climbing in that chair in the pic - but from the side, so you can slide under the little bar. You’re hilarious, dude.
Look at your Corduroy book on the floor! I told you that you love it!
The thing I wanted to write about tonight is what you do to my heart every time you run up to me to give me a hug. Without question it is the best feeling in the world. There are two I get pretty consistently: first in the morning when I’ve gone to the kitchen to make you a snack — you come in and give me one. The second is when you get home from daycare - it might not be immediate, I do have to contend with our awesome dogs - but you always eventually come find me and give me a hug while I am making dinner.
It’s the best.
I love you, buddy. Keep being awesome.
Love, Dad.
