Jay has thought of a new way of expressing himself so this is the first of a new type of post. I think it is both beautiful and tough to read. I appreciate this new venue for your expression Dad!

...After Breakfast
Let’s take your robe off
We’ll hang it in the closet.
There’s your toothbrush.
Put it under the tap.
Here’s some toothpaste.
Push the top button
Yes that’s the one.
Push it.
Now brush
Spit
Rinse the brush.
Under the tap
Now brush again.
Spit
Rinse the brush.
Under the tap
Turn it off
The small button
Yes, push it.
Here’s a towel.
Dry your hands.
And Face.
And the brush.
Put it on the stand.
I’ll fold the towel
And put it on the rack
Here’s your hair brush.
Brush your hair
We’ll put it in the drawer.

Brush your hair
We’ll put it in the drawer.
…. And again tomorrow
…. Each day
…. 20 minutes of life
…. Together
