🩵 A Little About Me

💙 Favorite Color
Whatever color the water is when the sun shines on it.

🥬 Favorite Snack
Lettuce.

Also more lettuce.

And if you happen to have additional lettuce, I would be willing to discuss it.

🌊 Favorite Hobby
Floating.

Sometimes I float over there.

Then, when I'm feeling adventurous...

I float back.

😂

🫧 Favorite Game
Bubble Watching.

There aren't any rules. You just watch them.

It's a very good game.

😊 I Smile When...
I'm awake.

Sometimes when I'm asleep too.

🤗 I'm Really Good At...
Hugs.

I'm basically shaped like one.

🌎 My Biggest Dream
Hmm.

...

Is lunch a dream?

Because lunch.

🌧️ My Biggest Fear
Running out of snacks.

Winston says I'm supposed to put something meaningful here.

I'm pretty sure snacks are meaningful.

🩵 Something You Should Know About Me
I don't always know what we're doing.

But I'm very happy to be included.

🩵 A Little From My Heart

"Sometimes everybody around me seems to be thinking about something.

Big things.

Important things.

Things that happened yesterday.

Things that might happen tomorrow.

Things somebody said.

Things somebody might say.

Things that haven't even happened yet but apparently we're worried about them anyway.

That's a lot of things.

I don't really do that.

Yesterday already happened.

Tomorrow isn't here.

But right now?

The water is warm.

The sun feels nice.

My belly is full.

And one of my favorite people is floating beside me.

That's pretty good.

Maybe later we'll figure some things out.

Maybe there are problems we need to solve.

Maybe tomorrow will need something from us.

But I don't think every good moment needs to become something.

Sometimes you can just be in it.

You can laugh because something is funny.

Eat something because it tastes good.

Rest because you're tired.

Hug somebody because you love them.

Float because... well... floating is great.

You don't always have to know what comes next.

Sometimes right now is enough.

Anyway...

I think I saw some lettuce."

With love,

Gus 🩵
