The Adventures of Schuyler and Charlie

meanwhile... back at the ranch

So while his Papa was busy flunking his exam, Charlie was busy doing the stuff that babies do when they are chronically neglected by their fathers: They learn to play by themselves while under the constant flashbulbs of the Mama Paparazzi. When I came out of the exam, one of my first thoughts (besides "wow, that was like my whole head was teething") was how excited I was to be a full on Dad again. I'd been studying mainly in the evenings and nap times but over the last month, I took more and more time away from everyone. Schuyler barely noticed I was gone since she spent a great deal of time with Kim and Wardie Baby. But i'd like to think Charlie took a moment out from processing absolutely everthing around him to think "I wonder where that guy is?" I can't wait to (a) not have to study for a couple of months and (b) get to know this new boy and spend some time as a family.
