Dear Dallin Boy,

You’re just a baby.

I would like to keep you that way.

I love to kiss your cheeks.

You don’t have any teeth.

Why must you stand?

You just learned how to sit up without support last week!

You’ll be walking before I’m ready.

We have very slippery wooden stairs.

Two sets of them even.

I have slipped on both sets, and I’m an experienced stair climber.

Heaven only knows the possible bruises that await you.

Why can’t you just stay little?
