Princess: Our Daddy is home! He has been on an airplane for a long time and I have missed him so, so much!
Pea: Me too! Me too! I would stand at the end of the driveway and shout, "da da!" but he never came!
Princess: Mommy said that he would be coming home really late and that I would be asleep when we went to pick him up. I said that I would sleep on the couch and wait so that as soon as he got home he could come and give me a bear hug and a big kiss.
Pea: Me too! Me too!
Princess: You didn't want to sleep on the couch Pea! You wanted to sleep on the bed with Mommy because you're just a baby.
Pea: You like to sleep with Mommy too and besides I like kisses from Daddy!
Princess: Well, anyway I went to sleep and then Mommy got me and put me in the car. Then we drove and drove and drove a long time and I went back to sleep and when I opened my eyes my Daddy was in the car! He gave me hugs and kisses and I told him all about how Kiyoshi came to play with me and then I told him how much I missed him!
Pea: Me too!
Princess: You did not! You slept the whole time! Anyway after he gave me hugs I told him I was sleepy and I went back to sleep.
Pea: Then we got home and I got kisses too!
Princess: You were still sleeping.
Pea: But I got kisses anyway!
Princess: We both went back to sleep but when I woke up guess what? Daddy was still there! And he gave me presents! He got me a monster shirt which I didn't like at first because I don't like monsters because they're scaaaaaaary but then when he got home from his office I liked it.
Pea: And I got one too and I liked it!
Princess: You didn't like it until later either. I was worried that when Daddy left he wouldn't be coming back again but he did! He came back home and we had dinner and played tickle monster chase!
Pea: I played too! And Daddy carried me around and I got to sit on his lap!
Princess: Yeah but he played with me more. After dinner he helped me make a dream catcher so I won't have bad dreams!
Pea: Me too!
Princess: You did not! You don't have bad dreams and besides all you did was eat the beads and then you fell asleep on Mommy.
Pea: Well, I was tired ok??
Princess: It was kind of boring making the dream catcher so I made a spider web with the yarn in Daddy's office. It was cool! I don't know why Mommy and Daddy didn't like it.
Pea: Probably because I kept getting caught in it.
Princess: Yeah, you kept messing it up! Anyway, the dream catcher Daddy made me is pink and fuzzy with pink beads and pink feathers that I picked out and guess what? It worked and last night I didn't have bad dreams!
Pea: Yeah and Daddy is going to come home again tonight and have dinner with us and take a bath!
Princess: I know-I was the one who told you that this morning! I love having my Daddy home!
Pea: Me too! Me too!
