Email from mr. flea:

Thanks to you I got an early start with the kids this morning and so
I decided to take Casper over to the DCC with me to drop off Dillo.
The drop off went well. I think Dillo is adjusting pretty well to the
new situation. Then Casper and I went over to Whole Foods for
breakfast. It's something special that I like doing with her every
once in a while ... she had a good breakfast --- 2 strips of bacon,
1/2 a biscuit, and some chocolate milk. Over breakfast we talked
about lunch and how we want her to eat well so she can be healthy and
have good energy for her day.

Anyhow, as we ate it was nagging me that the gentleman sitting in the
booth behind us looked vaguely familiar. So I introduced myself and
told him he looked familiar but that I couldn't place him. We
quickly determined that he was Dr. G, the OB/GYN that assisted
with Casper's delivery [we had a midwife, but he was the attending that day for the practice, and looked in on us when we were dealing with very long pushing and a funny head position. I have a vivid memory of seeing him standing at my feet, with his head cocked to the side like a bird]. So on this special morning I got to
introduce Casper to the doctor who delivered her. He didn't remember
us specifically, but he seemed genuinely interested in chatting with
Casper and getting an idea of what kind of little person she has
grown into. They talked a little and I told the story of how he
called her a "little rascal" and how we still call her that to this
day. It was a nice experience :))

I love having a family with you.

That is all so sweet. I think it's cool that the dr. took the time to be interested and I think it's really sweet that mr. flea took Casper to breakfast.

Oof. Am dead from how sweet that is!

"I love having a family with you" - oh, my, that's one of the loveliest sentences a person can write to another person. The story itself was adorable, of course, but that last line made it even better.

Awwww! Also, what Nilly said.
