So I'm actually feeling a whole lot better today. Not entirely great, but better. I'm sure things could still get bad. I'm working with Ruth again tonight (blegh), but my day so far has been overall pretty good.copyright protection376PENANA5jk9J2jviv
I had a nice little talk with my babysitter on Sunday and made it clear that if she screwed up one more time, she's gone. Not sure if she was frightened by my threat, but it sure felt good to get that out. I'm still considering replacing her with Lauren (the girl from my art appreciation class) for good.copyright protection376PENANAe4Swac9e8Y
So I was still in a pretty bad mood when I woke up Sunday morning, but I started feeling a little better halfway through church. Mainly because Bunny was a lot more clingy that day than usual. All throughout the message, she was laying down on me with her arms wrapped around me and she kept on clinging to me even after I stood up to greet people. I guess since I've hardly been around the house this week, she wants to be around me as much as possible when she can. It really does make me a little happy that Bunny isn't angry with me that I haven't been home that much. She just misses me and is happy when she's with me.copyright protection376PENANAmEVp6CckD3
And like always, I kept on hearing comments about how gorgeous Bunny looked that morning. Not to brag, but I did a pretty good job doing her hair that morning. It was definitely one of the cutest braided sock buns that I ever done. And the dress she was wearing was absolutely beautiful. It's probably my favorite one that she has.copyright protection376PENANAPzQwgqeUFv
Work was...okay. I didn't have to work with Ruth, so that was a plus. But I still much rather would have been at home with my daughter.copyright protection376PENANA5II5r5UKpC
This morning, I woke up about thirty minutes earlier than usual (I usually wake up at about six) just feeling really upset and guilty. I was thinking about how clingy Bunny was to me yesterday and how she was probably feeling about me not being around the house that much lately. About how much she missed me. I felt like she deserved more of my love than usual. copyright protection376PENANAMcp8LaOGSC
At around six-thirty, I walked over to Bunny's room and patted her back to wake her up. I then gave her one of the largest kisses that I've given her in a while. As she woke up, I slowly lifted her up and she wrapped her arms around me. After that, I just walked back and forth around the living room a bit with her in my arms. After a few minutes, I sat down on the couch and began patting her back a bit more and gave her another kiss on her forehead. I started telling Bunny that I loved her more than anything else in the world and that she meant everything to me. I apologized about how busy I had been recently, saying I wished that things didn't have to be so hard. After giving her another kiss, Bunny sat up and said: "Daddy, I'm not mad at you" and gave me a kiss on my cheek. Then she said: "I love you, Daddy. You're the best daddy in the world."copyright protection376PENANAfiJY5HtWcB
As I stared into her beautiful front-teethless smile (they're barely starting to grow in), my heart lit up. Then I smiled.copyright protection376PENANAD5tysNCXkM
"I love you too, my little Bunny."copyright protection376PENANAH3XJq5DYQ8
After that, I set Bunny down so that she could go get dressed, but then she hopped back onto the couch and started tickling me. Yep, we had ourselves a little tickle fight this morning. Can't get enough of those.copyright protection376PENANAlO9drM5wNC
Needless to say, my morning was amazing. I went to my art appreciation class with a smile on my face. I was actually somewhat interested in what we were talking about today. Still not sure if I want to do this for the rest of my life though.copyright protection376PENANAETntqK6g1F
So yeah, I'm feeling pretty good right now. I just got done eating lunch (Taco Bell) and I'm about to head home. I don't think there's too many chores to do right now, so maybe I'll finally get some time to watch some anime. I've been wanting to catch up on ReLIFE for a while.copyright protection376PENANAFHqLDbLocM
