Gibby-
I need to remember two things…
When you are making a point, and you want to point, you use your middle finger instead of your pointer finger. Basically, each day, more than once, you shake your middle finger at us while making usually very astute points. (The middle finger is turned sideways, just like as if it was the pointer.) I love it!
You also have been been speaking your own language recently. We call it Gibanese. Decker and Dad do it too, but not so much that we had a language named after us!
Deck-
I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention something that absolutely warmed my heart today. I was frustrated after breakfast. We had breakfast with Great-Grandma, Grandma, and Grandpa. I was sad because I realize how age takes a toll on people. In my sadness and frustration, when you and Gibson were talking about going to Target to get new toys, I said, “Is that all you care about, new toys?” Then I had to go to work.
When I came home for dinner, you said to me, “You know what I need more than toys? I need my Mommy and Daddy.” It was one of the greatest things I’ve ever heard to date.
Mom told me that earlier in the day you asked her, “Are some Mommy’s mean?” Mom answered you, “I guess some Mommy’s are mean; they may not want to be mean, but…” You cut Mommy off and said, “You aren’t mean. You are terrific.”
When Mom told me that story at dinner, you said to me, “You are terrific.”
What a day!
Love you guys,
Dad
