A Dad Moment...

[pfloyd]

Yes, I'm going to get fatherly here... so deal.

Over the past few nights, I've been giving Marcus his nightly bottle, like I usually do. It's really something to look down and see this little pair of bright gray eyes looking back up at you, you know?
It's also a heart-tugger when you come home, and he turns to see you and gives you that big toothless (well, almost) grin, and know that it's a smile that's just for you.
And his laugh... that's something special to hear.

Speaking of laughing... the other night, he's asleep in my lap, just after his bottle. All of a sudden he emits this quiet squawk, and then a cute little laugh... all while asleep! Colleen and I were amazed!

He's getting over his pneumonia very well. He's back to his normal self, but he'll still be taking doses of that pink liquid -- amoxicillin.
That and a small dose of Benadryl before bed...

I think your dadliness is sweet. I never mind your dadlinesses because that is so precious and should be cherished.

You won't ever hear me complain about having to read about Marcus.

What's the benadryl do for him? Help him/you sleep?

It gets him to sleep, yes... and in that regard, it lets us sleep more as well.

*barf*
But seriously though, we have an Xmas present for you guys (ok, it's really just for Marcus). Let us know when is a good time?

We would have come out on Sunday, but due to it being rather busy at work on Friday (I was the only one in our two-man support team to be in), I didn't have a chance to email.

Perhaps this coming weekend?
