1)Holding up Gabi and, cheek to cheek, having an impromptu science lesson while watching a spider devour a fly it had caught in its web, then hearing her sweet voice through her endearing underbite say, “Kimmie, la quiero muuuuuuucho.”
2)Having a first grade boy do his English project on pink construction paper because it’s my favorite color and then writing both our names on the front: Jeison + Kimmie.
3)Getting to hold a 14 year-old’s hand while she went on an escalator for the first time.
4)Hopping up my favorite 5 year-old on a granita de café and then having her lapse into a sugar coma on my lap on the bus ride home.
5)Making lists (tongue firmly in cheek).
6)Knowing I can totally do this for another 10 months.
you are awesome.
