Bryan has been working very long days, which means I've been working long days as well. It also means that I don't get to shower before he leaves in the morning. Somewhere there are children that play nicely while their mother gets cleaned up, but those kids do not live at my house. So no shower before Bryan goes usually means no shower at all.
Tonight after Bryan was home and the kids were asleep I finally got to shower. While I was finishing I heard Sophie wake up crying. I came out of the bathroom to find Bryan sitting on the bed, holding a now quiet Sophie. He leaned over and whispered, "Sophie, look who's here."
She looked up and did three things all at once: she grinned, she waved her arms in excitement, and she stood. All together, it looked like she launched herself off of Bryan in her eagerness to get to me.
It's nice to be appreciated.
