You're No. 1!

Did I ever tell you about the great exchange we came up with when you were about four?

One of us would say to the other, "You're No. 1!" The other person then would respond, "No, you're No. 1!" Then we'd both point at one another and at the same time say, "We're BOTH No. 1!"

We had lots of little exchanges like that. Sometimes we'd recite/exchange lines from books or TV shows we'd seen. "Knuffle Bunny", "Green Eggs and Ham" and "The Book that Eats People" come to mind!

Remember our "You're No. 1" exchange?

Last night your Uncle Chris and I got together and had coney dogs for dinner. I said to him, "You know why we like coney dogs?" He said, "No why?" I said, "Because we're both awesome."

Which got me to thinking about a wonderful, fun little exchange you and I used to do when we were together. You were about four years old when we began doing it.

It would start by one of us saying to the other, "You're No. 1."

To which the other would respond, "No, you're No. 1."

Then we'd both say at the same time as pointing at the other, "We're both No. 1!"

You're No. 1 to me, Kieran!
