ask, and you shall receive

we’re both baskets in this metaphor

We were in our sleep position (big spoon: her, little spoon: me), starting to drift off. And then this little gem of an exchange took place, inspired by our previous conversation about how she really wants me to go to the doctor again about all the unexplained bruising I’ve been having:

Her (sleepily): It’s really scary to put all my eggs in one basket… you know?

Me: Yeah, I know. It is scary.

Her (as she squeezes me tighter): But I really like this basket.

Me: I like the basket MY eggs are in.

Her: But what if the basket falls?

Me: I know, then all the eggs will break!

Her: That would be so sad!

So, here’s to hoping both of our “baskets” will remain healthy and strong for a long, long time.
