Here we go again!
As you guys know, I keep track of particularly funny or eventful or adorable or deep things you guys say.
So much is said, and so many meaningful conversations just float into the ephemera of our souls and our bond. So many things you say make us laugh or proud or embarrassed and then proud or giddy. You are both talkative and expressive and hilarious.
You're both growing up so much. And you're both uniquely and collectively amazing.
And I am SO proud to be your Daddy, and hopefully slightly influential on your life and ideas and view of the world which, as you'll see, is pretty entertaining and intriguing.
Conversations ranged from romance to jokes to love to life and death and potty humor.
But don't take my word for it! See it for yourselves!
