When we went to the post office this morning to collect our week of mail, we discovered two letters from Daddy for the girls in the pile. Nora enthusiastically ripped open the envelope and read her own name and the "Love, Daddy" part, while I read the text in between outloud. And Caroline was excited to see her Elmo birthday card and give it a taste. We talked about Daddy at the dinner table tonight...I asked Nora if she remembers what Daddy looks like and she said, with a smile, "Yeah...he's a handsome guy." Upon further inquiry, she informed me that he's tall, and has black hair and brown eyes. Oops. Don't worry, Mike...I haven't had any tall, dark and handsome men come a callin' while you've been gone! I reminded her that Daddy has the same color hair and eyes that she does, and she giggled and said "Oh...yeah...right." We had a nice day today - Nora went to school while Caroline and I ran errands, and I raked our front lawn while the girls napped. It's going to be in the 80s all week...crazy, considering that we were wearing winter coats in NY last week!
