She's a daddy's girl!
Tonight, I use the restroom at the resturant, leaving Campbell in her highchair with Nana, Ethan, and Macy.  Later that evening, Nana and Macy step away from the table.  As they are walking away, Campbell looks at me, then looks back at them as they walk away and then starts boo-hooing . . . tears and all.  It was at this time that I realized where I stood . . . at the bottom!

This post made me laugh. I'm glad to see Emily made the ranks!

Funny, Robbie, but I can't deny that Campbell does love me. Probably not the best but close. All Pop and I do when she's with us is worship and adore her, delight in each word and activity, look for things to entertain her, walk stooped over holding her hand round and round the island in the kitchen and try to save her from those mean therapists. Why wouldn't she love us? Really though, I think you probably rank above the turtle. Love, Nana

I can't believe Michael made the list. He makes her cry when he walks in the room. :) Emily

Emily,
It's actually not Michael who makes Campbell cry, it's Chrissy ;)
