The Comforter

I took Troy up to his nursery today and laid him on the floor. Then I laid down next to him. As soon as my head hit the floor, Troy reached over and patted me on the shoulder, as if to say “There, there, daddy. Everything will be alright.” It might have been coincidence or it might have been intuition, but I’d had a really rough day today. That comforting gesture was exactly what I needed. He’s such an awesome boy.
