What a weekend! There are still some boxes sitting around here and there, and there’s certainly some stuff that needs to be put away, but we’re in now.
I had a nice Father’s Day. Ava gave me two beautiful ceramic tiles that have her hand prints on them. Leah gave me a gorgeous framed print of a picture I took three years ago (or so).
The highlight of the day, though, was ice cream with Ava after dinner. She got her sugar cone with rainbow sherbet, and we moved outside to sit on the curb in the parking lot. Ava was licking away, fighting the constant drips running over her hands. At one point, she sidled up to me and put her little hand on my thigh. She just left it there and looked out at the traffic going by. It was sublime. It’s pretty amazing to be a dad.
