dolly wolly

Dear Little Leah,

My favorite thing in the whole wide world is to come home from school and snuggle with you on the couch. You always seem to be so content sitting in my arms.

Last night, after dinner, while you and I were watching a movie on the couch, I gently set your dolly in your little arms. You were so still. Your arms and hands didn’t move a bit as you cradled your dolly. You kept looking down, staring into your doll’s face. It was cute beyond belief!

Even though you can’t walk over and pick up your dolly yourself, I figured that you still would like to hold her. Boy did you ever like it! Sometimes I forget that just because you can’t physically play with a toy by yourself that it doesn’t mean that you don’t want to play with toys at all. I love helping you with your toys. But you know what I love even more? Seeing that adorable, squinty smile on your precious little face.

I love you little girl!

Daddy
