Last night I made the executive decision that we were not going to school today.
Although it was only my 2nd day here, I needed to comfort Quinton through this time.
I woke up to my alarm, which indicated that I needed to text my siblings my plan.
(btw we have a family group chat)
They immediately responded saying that it was okay.
Quinton squirmed and repositioned himself to face the wall as I was doing this.
I turned off my phone and fell back asleep within minutes.
An hour later, I sat up in bed and decided to surprise Quinton when he woke up.
I crept into the kitchen and I started making Q's favourite breakfast which was bacon and waffles.
While I was cooking, I felt someone's head lean on my shoulder.
I automatically knew that it was Quinton.
"What are you making?" Quinton questioned in his raspy morning voice.
"Your favourite, bacon and waffles".
He smiled at me over my shoulder and took a step back.
He then proceeded to sit at the kitchen island.
I plated up the breakfast and placed it in front of him, completed with a glass of O.J. and maple syrup.
He innocently smiled at me and thanked me for everything.
