Hold Your Hand

To my son Tommy,

Last night, as we went up to bed, you asked your mom if she would come up and sing.  Since all the medical stuff with your mom, since she has been home, we usually have been doing our singing downstairs and then you and I head up to get you in bed.  It is not quite back to normal but better than having to sing over the phone or facetime with your mom in the hospital.  Lately, however, your mom has been braving the steps and been feeling a bit stronger.  So when you asked her last night, she agreed.  Then you added what could be one of the most heartfelt darn near cutest thing a kid can say, "Don't worry mommy.  I will hold your hand so you won't fall as you go up the steps."  Tommy my boy, you are such an uplifting pure innocent force in all of our lives.

Sincerely with love from your dad,
Leo
