Bilingüe Bebé: Why do Papi's have to work?

Santi's favorite person in the whole entire world is Papi. When Papi leaves for work or even attempts to put on his shoes Santi freaks out. In a perfect world, Papi would stay home all day and play soccer and feed ice cream to the little man. Sadly, it is not a perfect world, so Papi has to work.

This morning was for some reason a little harder on the pants than normal. Santi cried real tears and was genuinely sad for a good amount of time. He waved out the window even after Papi's car was out of site. Like I said, its always hard to watch him leave, but it wasn't the normal upset, it was real tears and crying. I felt so bad for the little guy.

I was able to distract Santi long enough to get him to stop crying. But almost immediately when he stopped crying he ran over to the rack of shoes and got out Papi's sandals. If Papi wasn't gong to be home, Santi at least wanted to play with something of his. He was actually able to get one sandal at a time on and walk around the room. Cute little boy.
