Today, I received two small bowls for a belated Christmas present. When I got home, I showed them to you and I put them in our “stuff box” in the corner. They are the perfect size to eat my favorite guacamole dip that you make when I ask. They’ll look nicely on our coffee table next to our sofa, or inside the cabinet by the sink, the one with little, round doorknobs. It’s getting close, it’s getting so close. And instead of being scared, I’m excited to put my little hand in yours and taking turns using their pen to sign the papers. This is real. This is now. You and me. You and me and our little stuff box.
