Tweeting

Every night I tweet.

I do it religiously.

But I don't do it on Twitter.

You see, every night when I put my youngest to bed he pretends to be a bird. He's the baby bird and I'm the mama bird. We communicate by tweeting, literally.

Goodnight is "tweet tweet".

I love you is "tweet tweet tweet tweet".

It's not a complicated language. Most of the meaning lies in the inflection.

It's one of my favorite parts of the day.
