"One Night. A Cute interruption."

 "One Night. A Cute interruption."

As I was preparing for work earlier Aven knocked on the bathroom door , "Dad open up , I got to show you these!" So there I was in the middle of brushing my teeth and Aven was presenting a crocheted chicken at the palm of her hands. "Look Dad , It looks dumber and dumber the more you look at it. Look!"

And she was right. It was cute and dumb at the same time. Next came the flurry of art prints , some were funny meme like things and a print of her favorite musician Hozier. Then the stickers which she prided in herself for getting for free when you bought enough stuff from the artist of a particular booth.

Then the ADMU key chain that seemed pretty unique to me. And I had to laugh at the thought that all of these things represented Aven's unique tastes and personalities. That we have let her grown to the point where she knows what she wants and knows where to find them. I smiled. (The toothpaste foam reaching the edges of my mouth)

She was practically skipping away with her chicken openly saying how happy she was with this haul. I closed the door and continued brushing my teeth.
