Sunday, July 1, 2012: Good Morning Sam! Today we are sponsoring a local jiu jitsu tournament at the home academy. We just finished setting up and have some time before the competition starts so I thought I would write. I am still buzzing about yesterday Sam. From the moment you saw me, there was a big Samy hug and kisses for Dad. There were a lot of those throughout the day. I know you missed me Sweetheart. I missed you too. Terribly. It did not matter what we did: pretend fishing in the swimming pool, drawing out on the patio, shopping, feeding the ducks and fish at the mall. I was so happy to spend time with you again. All day you would lead me around by the hand, wanting to be in my arms carrying you around, curling up on my lap and not wanting me to go. That said it all. Best of all, you did all of this in front of Adriana Coronel Tenorio (AKA Adriana Howitt Coronel, Ari Coronel, Ari Coronel Tenorio, Ari Howitt, Ari Howitt Coronel). I wonder what goes through her head when she reads what’s on this website knowing all of this?
Suffice it to say, I realized how fast you are growing up. You just graduated from kindergarten! You were the top of your class in a lot of areas, even garnering some envy among classmates because you have an American Dad. Seriously. And if that was not adorable enough, you lost your second tooth, which I actually have in my possession. I realize there is a bigger picture here. Adriana is playing nice for now. Which means another sales pitch is coming. So be it. I LOVE YOU SAM!
