When daddy brings out his guitar, you&#8217;ll come over and bang on it and try to strum the strings. You&#8217;ll go into the girls&#8217; room and go through their jewelery, and Mia&#8217;s piles of clothes and find grab their makeup and try to go through it. And you love climbing into a full basket of fresh laundry just pulled out of the dryer.
