Just after sunset yesterday at the end of the pier.
Bud,
Yesterday Mindy and Marcie took Lilly for fun while I worked. We ended the day at the beach, Lilly's favorite place. Reminded me of how you used to come to the office with her and rush off after lunch. Not to miss traffic but to go to the beach for a bit and then try to still miss traffic. You guys loved going during the middle of the week in the middle of the day, the beach practically your own to play.
Shawn was with us and I asked him for a favor. While talking with Jon he told me something cool that you did. He told me that you asked him to get you a board so you guys could go out with the girls. Well, he got your board in and asked what I wanted to do with it. Of course I want it. I can literally see your smile while walking in the house, "Lilly look what daddy got for us!" That would have been perfect. So, I'm going to let her know that daddy got her a special gift and give it to her on her birthday. Shawn is going to take her out and teach her to catch some waves. Jon and Brandy will take Mercy and they'll have fun learning together. We'll go down and let her try it out with KC and Alex. She'll love it.
The best gift from the best daddy ever. Thanks babe!
Luv Ya,
Jenn
GLad you're doing this Jen. This will be a great site for Lilly one day to read through. I'm sure it's restorative for you also. Love u
ReplyDeleteAlex would be honored and stoked (to say it in "surfer speak") to take Lilly out on her new board! Just tell him when and where and we will be there. I know Mike will. Be too. Love reading this Jenn, thanks for sharing this with us all.
