Coming Home

When Paul comes home from work the look on Maxine’s face is simple: delight. She smiles, lets of shrieks of excitement and stretches her arms out waiting for Paul to take her. Paul takes off his jacket, washes his hands and holds Maxine. They smile each other and Paul asks her how her day was and what she did. He tells her he missed her and she grunts and coos back (right now it’s all about saying “mmm, mmm”).

When I come home from work the look on Maxine’s face is also simple: where have you been?

I love that girl.
