Van came into bed with me around 3:30 this morning. When he woke up at 6:30 he said,
Van: "Mom can I go downstairs and play my Jurassic World game?"
Me: "No."
But then he said,
Van: "Hold on, there's someone I need to check on."
Me: "Van, don't wake up your sister."
Van: "Don't worry, that person is really close"
and he leans over and puts his ear on my tummy.
awwww.

Then he had a plan.
Van: "Mom! where's dad?"
Me: "He's in the other room, still sleeping."
Van: "Can I make him a surprise?"
Me: "Sure."
Van wrote 'Dad' in Hershey's chocolate sauce and then lined the chocolate sauce with chocolate chips. He brought it upstairs to a sleeping Andy at 6:45 AM, very pleased. I followed him in.
Van: "And look, I made a treat for everyone"
He presented everyone with a stemless wineglass filled to the brim with chocolate chips. Well Andy's cup was filled to the brim and everyone else's cup was prorated based on their size. Except for Van, who also got a full cup.
Me: "Van, you can't eat that much chocolate, that is about as much chocolate as is in a batch of chocolate chip cookies, for each person."
Van: smile.
Esther was also smiling, she came out of her room in her pajamas holding her chocolate chips, Van must have woken her up too.
A happy morning for everyone, I predict a sugar crash later in the day though...
