Instead of spending a nice quiet day at home with C.J. today, I had to get up like normal and go to work. It comes with the territory, but since C.J. is around, Saturdays are the only day I get to spend with her from sunup to sundown. While at work I called home twice just to see what was going on and was told that she was asleep and the constant inquiries about her all day do not help with my anxiety. So I continually whip out her picture whenever anyone asks, partly to show off, but more importantly, for me to get to see at least an image of my little twin.
So after stopping to do some solo food shopping and picking up some water for C.J. I arrived home. I had to bring in all the groceries, all my dry cleaning and all the other bags I accumulated from the morning until then. Now when I got everything put away C.J. was fussing a bit. She had just awakened because I guess she heard her Daddy! I got comfortable and then I grabbed her up. She almost instantly got quiet as she laid in my arms. I know she was happy to see me along with the sound of football coming from the television. C.J. may be a girl but she will sit quiet when football is being played and the smile upon her face tells me she enjoys it.
So as we sit as a family, and C.J. and I watch our favorite team, Notre Dame, play I really am glad that C.J. slept all day, so she could get up when her Daddy got home. Pretty soon when she hears the door crack she will run to me and utter the word that will make me go crazy "Daddy!". All will be in order in her mind when her Daddy gets home! Well that is all for today...the game is about to come back on. So, as always, remember to pray because prayer changes things.
