My 32nd birthday also happened to be on K's 8 month birthday, but unfortunately I had to go to work that night. Although on my break I was so pleased to find this wonderful e-mail that my husband sent to me, telling me about what happened while I was away.
Kemper was awful quiet up in his room tonight. Some may say too quiet…
Helen had already gone to work. He had had his bath and his before-bed bottle. I sent him up to his room to get in bed, but after 15 minutes, I looked upstairs and noticed that the computer light was on, lighting up the room like a full moon on a dark night.
Puzzled, I headed upstairs and snuck in on him to see what he was up to. Needless to say, he was not in bed, but sitting at the computer typing. I startled him as I asked what he was doing.
“Oh, nothing” he replied, laughing as he kept typing
“Is this how you spell my name, Dad?” he giggled. “Spell check does not recognize it!”
“Close enough, son” I replied. “Now finish up and turn off the computer and get to bed.”
“Ok, Dad, but let me do one more thing. I want to show Mom something first…”
~All our love, Kemper & Kemper
