Well, it was solidified tonight, Larry St. Lawrence is Poppy of the World. Not only has he maintained being a number person in Xander's life, but he is on a fast track to be being the same for Calista.
We stopped by Nana and Poppy's house tonight when we were finishing our walk to say a little hello and give snuggles. While Xander was distracted, Poppy was able to get a little undivided time with Cally and secured his spot as Captain Cool. He got her to talk to him, smile at him, copy him by sticking her tongue back out at him, and then coo some more. Cally never took her eyes off of her Poppy and thus began her relationship with her Poppy.
I am sure there will be many more moments for Poppy and Cally to share, but it was pretty special to watch her bond with him in such a short amount of time. Dad has always had the hearts of five girls, but now he will have a sixth one. Just watching Cally stare at him tonight, I saw such adoration in her for him. I couldn't ask for a better guy for one of Cally's first loves...her brother and daddy of course were her very firsts.
Boo, could Cally look any more like you than she does in that last picture of her and Dad? If it weren't for Dad's graying hair, I would swear that was a picture of you when you were a baby!
ReplyDeleteDad look _so_ happy with Cally Boo, and she looks quite content, too. I'm glad that Xander is able to share his Poppy.
