Well on the road to recovery...

Dear Nicky,

Were it not for your very recent and very welcome teething, you'd be almost your old self. The teething makes you irritable, but we're so happy you're finally getting some! We just hung out today, day three without therapists, which could not be helped of course, since you just had some surgery on Monday. Next week is back to the salt mines! Your recuperative powers are remarkable. You took a nice long nap today, and got back to sleep almost by yourself during your usually fussing moment. Everything looks okay down there!

Love,
Dad
