Tom has duty at the hospital tonight for the first time, that means he left this morning at 6:30 and won’t be home until tomorrow evening. At dinner tonight Hayden asked why daddy couldn’t come home tonight. I told him that he had to stay there in case one of his patients needed him. He got a very sad look and said “But what if I need him?” I quickly tried to cheer him up and lightly said “Don’t worry, he’ll be here tomorrow if you need him!” He was quiet for a moment and then got a bright eyed looked, tapped his finger on his forehead and said “I have an idea, I can be his patient everyday!” He was so happy with this new idea all I could say is “We’ll see...” and he went about happily eating his dinner. Hayden sure does love his daddy!!

Happy Father’s Day!!
