Tonight I surprised Kylie by showing up after work and taking her out to dinner. I didn’t get to see Kylie last weekend and I won’t see her this weekend either, because she is spending both weekends with Mommy. This week Mommy is out of town with Mimi, Aunt Sissy, and a few others enjoying a cruise for Mimi’s birthday and Neil has taken the week off to watch her and make sure she gets to school. Seeing that I missed her very much I arranged this little surprise with Neil. So when I knocked on the door and entered Kylie was very surprised and happy to see me. She yelled “Daddy!!” and ran to me with a big hug. She asked what I was doing there and I said “I am taking you to dinner, anywhere you want to go.” As I expected she choose Texas Roadhouse, and off we went. After we both enjoyed a nice meal and some very nice quality time we headed back home. On the way back she asked if we could get a McFlurry from McDonald’s for dessert, so we made a detour and each had a snack sized one and talked some more. Afterwards I brought her back to Mommy and Neil’s and came home. It was a very nice dinner and I enjoyed spending some much needed Daddy-Daughter time. I hope when she is older, she will look back and enjoy these memories as much as I do. Daddy loves you Kylie, whole bunches forever.
