Yesterday, he bought a newspaper, took the blanket out of the clothes dryer, went to the grocery store, washed some dishes, chopped veggies for soup and took a bath. I was looking forward to waving him on his way to work this morning. You know, like baby’s first day at school. I was exhausted from having him home for two weeks, but I was pleased at how strong and resilient he’d been. He’d come through like a trooper. Honestly? He’d made me proud.
