First Bath Solo

Tonight, my boy bathes
	for the first time alone —

"Daddy, get out, but
	you can leave
	the door open…"

Don't worry, I'm here —

"Daddy?"

Still here, Honey —

"I love you…
	I'm done…"

I'm not leaving,
	you're safe —

"I'll dry myself, but
	let me see you first…"

I'll be here a long time,
	until I'm imperfect again.
