Meat eater...

Dear Nicky,

I think you're finally okay. This morning we gave you kids each a bath, then after a brief nap, we went over to Granny's for her birthday lunch. Her birthday is actually tomorrow, but we all went over today. Your two aunties made the best lunch: beef tenderloin, baked potatoes, asparagus, salad. It was great. And you got to see all your cousins and play with them and everybody was loving on you. You ate some mac and cheese as a snack, then played, then you had lunch with the rest of us, which included several bites of potato and two big slices of delicious meat. It makes me happy to see you eat nice natural proteins, which you need to grow your little muscles and brain. Afterwards, in the car, you were out like a light, and you slept the whole way home. In fact, we put you straight to bed when we got home, where you remained till you wanted some water. We took that opportunity to change you into your sleeping clothes, and now you're well fed and asleep. Good on you, pal!

Love,
Dad
