Dear Luciana,

So today I realized something. At the end of the book, I wrote about how when you were cranky, I would flip you upside down to get you to stop crying. I can’t do that anymore.

I don’t even remember the last time I did it. It must have been months ago. You still love being carried, that hasn’t changed. But I can no longer flip you upside down and let your legs dangle around my neck. You are too big.

Why are you doing that to me? Why are you growing so quickly? Do you know you cause me an existential crisis every time you do something like this? In about four months you are going from daycare to preschool. In the past two months you’ve gone from barely talking to talking nonstop. I need to take some Lorazepam.

Where is the stop button?

Besitos,

Daddy
