A Second Hand Story From Poughkeepsie

I am at NYS&F now and have been here since Monday. You and Daddy are coming up tomorrow and I can't wait to see you both. I miss you so much. I came up a couple days early so I could get things set up for your arrival. It has been a ridiculous amount of work -- endless trips to Target and Bed Bath & Beyond and the grocery store. I want so badly for you to have a good time up here. I'm happy to be working one last job before the new baby comes but I miss you terribly and it would be really hard for me to be away from you for much longer.

On Monday night, Daddy told me that you were really sad that I wasn't there so he told you a long story about the Sun Room and how you didn't like it at first and then you kept going back and eventually you loved it. Honestly, I'm not sure what that story had to do with missing me but I know how much you like to hear stories about things that have happened in your life so I bet it calmed you down for awhile. Daddy concluded by telling you, "That which doesn't kill you makes you stronger." After a moment, you turned to him with a puzzled look and asked, "What witch?"
