Hugs

There's nothing that makes the sun come out like your 2.5 year old daughter getting one step down the porch, pausing as if she's forgotten something, then turning around to run back to you, wrapping her little arms around both of your legs and shoving her face in, right above the knees, for those full-body hugs she gets when you bend over to wrap your arms around her in return. The little upturned-face goodbye kiss is wonderful, as well.

I think this happens to parents/people a lot, and we always think the physical aspect of it is the most important part, right? The hugs, the kisses.

After this morning, I think it's the moment of remembering, that matters, the pause when they realize they must not leave without giving you a hug goodbye. That is just awesome, that moment.

I really should be getting more of these files done. Instead I'm looking around the internet to find the best Allie Brosh comic I could possibly put up to express how I feel right now without freaking everyone out. Because it's not that serious. It's just the weather.

I'd also really appreciate it if someone could find a way to permanently fix brain maladies of the psychological ilk. The only problem with that is, is that it's probably one of us who could find that way, if we could just focus and not get knocked off balance everytime we're deprived of sunshine for a few days.

I feel like the sky is just sticking its tongue out at me.

I do not entirely trust the judgment of people who read book series out of order.

Funny conversation:
Daddy: "I'm the boss."
2yrold: "No, you're not the boss. You're a kitty-kat."


My little family is hilarious, especially when no one is looking. :)

I had something to say....and then I chickened out.

The censor is strong with this one.
