Day 168:
A dark and stormy night gave way to a a bright and airy warm day, Conor. Fortunately for me I've had plans to get your "Lion" tattoo finished for weeks now, so I was able to cut out of work early, hustle home to get our bike, and head out into the afternoon sunshine for a short ride into Fairfax. Once there I would meet my new friend and tattoo artist, Chris Hewitt, at Patriots Tattoo to get through yet another painful phase of the cover up of a tattoo I've had for 23 years...
It's coming along though still not finished yet. Seems I'll need one more sitting / a couple hours to get it all done. Though when it's done it's going to something else, Son. I like how it's coming along and I suppose I should because it's going to be there for as long as remain in this mortal coil...
As for you, well Son, you were a treat today... I'd mentioned yesterday that you're coming back around to the kid you were before you caught a cold... Seems now you're actually better than before! All morning long, as well as when I'd returned home, you were smiling and giggling and chatting up a storm!! Each day seems to bring with it a new gift when it comes to you, Lion Heart. I can hardly stand how handsome you are, and each time you look me in the eyes and smile I'm frozen like a deer in headlights, unable to move until your gaze passes me by. Truly mesmerizing.
Tomorrow it's back to work for me and school for you and the promise of another bright new day, Son. If I'm fascinated by you today, I can only imagine what tomorrow holds...
I love you, Conor.
