Lately, I’ve been walking you the two miles to the gym and letting you make friends with the CrossFitters while I work out, before walking you back home again. You love the CrossFitters. You kiss them and smile at them and wag wag wag<\/a> the whole WOD so they know you’re proud of their efforts.<\/p>\n

All smiles all the time.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

A lot of them will give you a scratch on the head or a belly-rub. You do your signature move<\/a>. And then if they sit down on the ground next to you, you understand that they mean for you to sit in their laps. So you do.<\/p>\n

Coach Phil always has a long conversation with you about how handsome you are and how it’s OK to lick wherever you can reach. It reminds me of that scene in Parenthood<\/em> when Tod (Keanu Reeves) tells Helen (Diane Weist) that the conversation with her son went well: “I told him that’s what little dudes do<\/em>.” I guess you could probably use a dad. I tell you all the time how handsome you are, but I never thought to tell you the part about the licking your junk.<\/p>\n

Yesterday, you did the WOD with me. Part of it anyway. It started with running a mile and ended with running a mile. The stuff in between required opposable thumbs so you just sat outside looking cute. (Which you did Rx<\/a>.) We did the first mile in under twelve minutes. The second took fifteen. You would’ve gone a lot faster except that (1) you were tethered to my slow ass and (2) you had to stop to poop twice.<\/p>\n

You’re quite the athlete, little man.<\/p>\n

Love,<\/p>\n
