Dear Cabbit...morning kisses..

I'm watching a movie I'd hoped wouldn't remind me of you too much.
Of course, it had to have a scene with a Pisces who don't eat fish because she didn't eat her own kind.
Much like you and crustaceans.
Though there was another scene where a man kissed his girlfriend on the cheek before he left to do something brave.
That reminded me of how much I've missed your good morning goodbye kisses.
And the rule we had any never leaving without a kiss...
It also reminded me of how often I would stay in bed when you'd get up, waiting for that kiss..
Yes, when I was really sleep and you tickled me with your moosestache hairs I react instinctually.
Though when I woke up when you'd go to get in the shower, I'd stay and wait for that kiss..
I loved it so much..
It was one of the sweetest things you'd do..
Sometimes at all..
It was like, even if we fought..
I knew you'd kiss me before you left in the morning, at least most of the time..

Idk if I ever told you about that..
Or how many times I stayed in bed late on your days off or got in bed to pretend to be napping when you'd come home in the evening, because I hoped you'd climb into bed with me and want to "wake me up the right way".
That was rarer and rarer over the years.
I miss that too.

Here's to hoping that you're missing me right now too..
And thinking about all the little things we used to do with and for each other that really made all the difference...
