So Jordan comes by to pick her up tonight, after getting off work. We’re in the living room, she is “hiding” from her dad, as she always does – it’s a game with her.
While waiting for her to show herself, we talk about his day, I compliment him on the recent “job completion” pics that were posted by his boss (at Infinite Decks), and other stuff (like what she and I did today), and also caught up on her soccer practice that I missed on Monday evening, etc.
Eventually she comes out of her hiding spot (my closet), we put on her shoes, and we walk out to the driveway to his truck. I had borrowed her tricycle this morning when I picked her up, and Jordan stuffed it in the back of the truck. While he’s doing that, I pick her up, and place her in her car seat, buckling her up. Gave her a kiss goodbye, she then holds out her arms – wanting a goodbye hug from me. Do that, slap/squeeze Jordan’s shoulder as he gets into the driver’s seat, saying goodbye to him.
Walking up the drive, I only get two steps away when Jordan calls out “hey!” I turn round, and look at him. He clears his throat “ahem.”
Long, very long, pause.
“Umm, you’ve got a smudge of something on your nose” he says.
“Oh, thanks! Yeah, Lailah painted my nose blue this afternoon. No worries!”
Made. My. Day.
Hahahaha.
[Picture of me with my painted nose is in today’s Lailah album that was posted earlier this evening.]
