I’ve been home sick with Emily today and learned another lesson in fatherhood. Despite how independent and fiesty a toddler may be while developing her own personality, when the coughs and sniffles have her down for the count she’ll always need her daddy.
I can’t help but feel bad for how miserable Emily is right now, but when she calls for me and snuggles close for comfort it gives me joy to be her dad. Even if she did keep us up half the night with her hacking.
