Daddy's Love

Ana is really chirpy this morning and can't wait for me to go back to work. I asked her multiple times what did Jay bribe her with, but to no avail.

I got her a new stuffie yesterday for being a good girl and all but she seems a tad bit disinterested in it. She even forgot to put up the latest drawing that Carol made for her on her art board in her room.

Anyway, it's a relief dealing with a happy baby instead of a cranky one.

"Ready to go over to Jay's?" I ask her after breakfast the next morning.

"Yay! Daddy? Can I stay over tonight?" She asks me.

"Huh?" I am slightly surprised.

"Can I stay the night with Carol?" She asks me again.

"You.... Want to? You won't be scared in the middle of the night? What if you need a change?" I ask.

"Uncle Jay will help me. Also, I am big girl." She says stretching her hands wide, to show me how big she is. She is adorable. I kiss her cheek.

"That you are my love. Is that what uncle Jay told you? Hmm? That's why you decided to let daddy go to work?"

"Nope." She grins. I sigh. How is he so good with littles? And when is he planning to go back to work, I wonder. What will happen then? I don't want to leave the kids with a baby sitter. I'll talk to my boss about working from home and everything today.

"Would you wait here, while I pack a quick overnight bag for you? Hmm?"

"Yes daddy! Thankssss!" She hugs me. "You be the best!"
