Day #1115 (Tue., Jan. 22, 2013) – Daddy’s Little Shadow
Katie is still making messages as you can see in the photo to the right.
I stopped off at Trader Joe’s on the way home from work this evening. We are low on supplies. I keep forgetting to get stickers for Katie. Too bad they don’t give out helium balloons anymore…Katie would really like those.
It seems that the more I spent time with Katie the more attached to me she becomes. In effect, she is my “little shadow”. As soon as I come home from work she runs up and greets me at the door. This is usually followed by grabbing me by the finger and the soft sounds of “Daddy, I want to show you something”. At this point I usually go along with it but have to figure out some maneuver to get away so that I can have some dinner.
This evening Katie and I were lying on the bed watching Caillou. I felt the trickle of little fingers through my hair. Then a little arm went around my neck and a warm cheek touched mine. Katie loves her daddy.
