If you were here: I would let you leave your dirty socks all over the place, I’d let you leave all the lights on in the whole house. You could stay in the shower as long as you wanted and use a new towel every day. I’d let you look over my shoulder in the kitchen and give endless suggestions about my cooking. I would let you leave your clothes all over the floor and when you needed to do laundry, I wouldn’t get upset when you threw my clean clothes from the dryer onto the floor. You could park behind my car or even have my spot in the driveway. Heck, you could have my car. I would make you chicken and rice and chocolate chip cookies every day. I would go to the mall with you and endure your endless shopping trips, I might even admit that your dog is smarter than mine just to give you that satisfaction. I would hug you more and force you to hug me back, I would drop everything I was doing whenever you needed me, I would tell you how much happiness you bring me and how proud I am of you. I would tell you how much I love you, but that you already know.
