Remember the day you rubbed oatmeal all over your face and your hair?
Remember that while I was cleaning the oatmeal mess, you crawled around on the floor and found something tiny to put in your mouth?
Remember when I started digging it out to realize it was a bug? Remember how I was so grossed out I had to use a spoon to get it out?
Remember how I took you upstairs to play and you wouldn't leave the cord to the fan alone?
Remember how while I moved the fan you knocked my tea over and it spilled all over the carpet?
Remember how I decided it was nap time, but you had other plans?
Remember how you're still awake as I write this, refusing to lie down?
Remember how I was in tears before 9am?
Remember that your gummy grin erases all of my stress. Remember that while this may be the hardest job I have ever had, there is absolutely nothing else I would rather be doing.
If you remember anything, remember how much I love you. Because I sure love you a whole lot.
