LETTER TO KDAY

Kday is in Jackson Hole WY after his big tandem win of the Logan to Jackson Road Race. He's out of cell range but said he'd check the email. Here is my letter to my favorite hubs.


Kev,
I wrote this letter in Helvetica Font because it's your favorite. And you're my favorite.
Thank you thank you thank you for the video you made for Layla. Lady's in bed but I'll show it to her tomorrow first thing in the am. I'm headed to bed now. We had a rough night last night. She woke up around midnight and wouldn't stop crying for about 2 hours. I tried a bottle, clean diaper, a bottle, rocking, a bottle, singing, bouncing, I even tried to sit her up in her highchair to eat solid foods to see if she was hungry. Finally after 2 hours of screaming and me taking A LOT of 10 second "timeout" breaks in the garage so that I didn't go crazy.... she fell asleep with me in our bed for a few minutes. Then I put her in her crib. We picked up our Bountiful Basket at 7 am sharp this am and then came back home and climbed into our bed again and slept until 10am. I didn't get my ride in. Or my run yesterday.... Stupid me.

I'm sorry I didn't come support you for this race. I always miss the good ones. Your dad couldn't stop talking on the phone to me about what a great race it was and how fun it would have been for me to go. You always do better without me there anyway I guess. 

Kashi had a few friends over tonight for a play date. MK's dogs came over and I sat out on the back porch talking to her and JS about homecoming dance and other girly stuff. I told them to make sure and date the guys that aren't in the center of the "it croud" and maybe they'd be lucky enough to find someone as AMAZING as you. They giggled when I talked about how you're the handsomest husband in the whole ward and how you have more style than anyone else. I also told them how you're the bestest dad ever invented. They think I'm crazy. I told them I was. Crazy in love with you.

We miss you. The zoo would have been more fun with you. The state fair would definitely have been more fun with you. Writing this email knowing that we can't talk on the phone makes me feel like I'm back in college and writing you emails. I remember wishing that you'd send me really long emails and just holding on to every word you typed and wishing they were longer. Oh, young love. 

Layla's sleep habits are getting so crappy. She just started crying again. I'm going to let her cry it out for a few minutes. She is getting so bad at crying between 10:30 and midnight for a bottle and I think she's eating plenty during the day. I think it's just a bad habit she'd picked up lately because our schedule has been out of whack. 

Anyway, I hope you get this tonight. I miss you like crazy. Like really crazy. Really really crazy. Our bed sucks without you. It's too quiet around here without your painfully loud rippers. Painfully stinky I might add. Ahh, she went back to sleep. 

Anyway, this email is rambling. Because that's what I do best. I love you tonzzzz and you know that's a lot because I used z's. 

Peace out home slice.
