Central Arizona at 2359 - Thursday
Kaesen and I woke up incredibly early, for either of us normally, today. We enjoyed waking up together here at my dad's house in central Arizona. More than that, I just enjoyed waking up again next to him. I am so getting used to this magical experience again with him as each day arrives. It was similar when I returned twice in the last twelve months, but this time it is for real, it is permanent, and it feels great. I know we will be leaving here in a few weeks - but we will be leaving together. He will live between two homes moving forward and as much as this does still pain my heart, at least we will be close to one another. No matter the outcome, we will be together and we WILL be happy.
It is very late on Thursday night, almost Friday morning in fact. I am up for a drink of water. Kaesen and Daddy fell asleep hours ago, five in fact, and it was, and is, wonderful. his peaceful face glows in the dark - truly it lights up my being like nothing else I experience. Kaesen is fast asleep and quietly dreaming, likely of things little boys dream of and I cannot wait to talk to him again! Maybe he is dreaming about the fun we had today. We went to Moon Valley Park after filling up about 20 water balloons and threw them as high and as hard as we could so they would "explode" on impact, We played on the swings, the field equipment, and talked with other little ones and their parents. Later we ate chili for dinner - made by my dad and visited with Kaesen's Goppie and Vovo, his Arizona grandparents.
Life is grand.
143, Kaesen.
Good night and good day.
