As I predicted, shortly after I leave to go back to Minnesota Kylie says the words I have been waiting a long time to hear: “Love You.” The first time she said it she was walking from Aunt Sissy to Mommy while looking directly at Mommy and said “Love You.” Tiffany quickly grabbed her phone and called me and got Kylie to say it again. So the first time I heard Kylie say the words I have been waiting to hear was over the phone over 600 miles away. But I heard her say it and that’s what I have been waiting for. It makes me miss her all the more and I can’t wait to get back home to see her and hold her again!
