7. And we had parties for you even though
you didn’t show up – but everyone
brought you presents…
8. Obviously,
this is
before
Daddy’s
haircut
Really cool presents, too!
9. Scary narrow trail
overlooking steep
drop to frigid river
And Mommy insisted on taking hikes, long,
treacherous hikes, to try and make you come
out (you can ask her about this idea yourself)
10. It must have worked, because one night,
she couldn’t stop dancing…
