Civil Disobedience

 
 
The other morning you both were wide awake before I left for work. Aidan, you led the charge.
 
"You are not to go to work," you said playfully.
 
I explained that I had too! Afterall, we'd just had a 3.5 day weekend and a week at the beach. And I kind have to bring home the bacons. But, that doesn't matter. And it didn't phase you either.
 
You rant to the front door. Julia, chocolate milk in hand, followed you.
 
"We are blocking your way! You can't leave!" you said, cheekily.
 
A smile never left your faces, and you both really made me feel so super special that you wanted me to stay at home and be with you.
 
I thought fleetingly about calling sick...but what kind of example would that set?
 
We hugged, we kissed, we made plans to play Candy Land when I got home.
 
And when I got home we hugged again, kissed again, and played, hung out, swam, chased, and read until bed time.
 

The only good part about leaving the both of you is constantly getting to come back to you.

i love you so much; and thank you for blocking the door, and making my day.
