Oh hey....it's my daughter!
I'm not sure what you mean, but if it is that your daughter uses you for a pillow here's some advice from an old dad. There will come a time, and it comes very quickly that it doesn't happen anymore. When that does you don't have a problem at first but as you get older and you look back on your life you find that remembering those times makes you want them again. This time you won't try and find an excuse to move. You will just stay there and love every single minute of the love and trust and comfort that you had brought to a very precious person and an equally precious time in life. That time span only happens once!

Oh, I enjoy snuggling up with her on the couch and watching Netflix. I was more referring to the fact that whenever I have to get up to go to work, she grabs my arm and says "Noooo!!! Don't gooooo! I'm too comfortable!" A is not a snuggler. I could always tell when he was sick when he was small because that was the only time he would crawl up in my lap. If he was sick or EXTREMELY tired. He preferred not to be touched otherwise, which is quite common with autisic children, but of course we didn't have a diagnosis back then. But E was the opposite. E never wanted to be set down, and when she was a baby, she was never very particular about who was holding her as long as SOMEONE was. My friends loved that they could just pass her around and she was all smiles no matter who held her. At church on Christmas when A was only a few weeks old, E was a year and a half old, just barely walking, and there was this woman who had come from Australia to visit her great grandparents and she came to church with them. She was probably in her 20s, so a pretty young woman, and E just walked right up to her and climbed in her lap. She looked confused and then I told E that she can't just climb up in people's laps because not everyone wants to hold her, and told the woman to just give her to me if she didn't want to. She was fine with it, but thought at first E had mistaken her for me. I was like "Nope, she just really likes to be held and apparently you look friendly enough that she thought you were a good candidate." She did the same thing at a birthday party the week before. A was 2 weeks old, so obviously, I was holding him and it was hard to hold both of them at the same time. She wandered around the house at the birthday party and then climbed into one of the other guest's laps. She was actually a daycare worker, so she was quite used to kids and didn't have a problem with it, but thought it was funny that E just walked up and climbed onto her lap. She's always been a hugger and I used to have to remind her about personal space and that not everyone liked hugs. She'd just run up to her friends or teachers and hug them really tightly. Some of them would have this panicked look like "What is she doing??" But that's just always been her.

Back from Epcot, seems wifi issues were better today.
Still had some issues.

Also, christ.. Futureworld looks damn horrible with the darn constructions.. the back, center and left side of epcot is full of machines. Looks a.. ugly.. but yeah.
Managed to ride almost everything. Sis loved test track and Soarin'.
And yes, both the "amazing" rat and Frozen were "thats it?" for me and my sister.
I guess we got spoiled with flight of passage and rise of the resistance.

Harmonious was nice, but I concur with others, it felt lackluster in pyro.
The songs were questionable because they were all from Disney or pixar movies.. even if some of them did not even had anything to do with EPCOT at all.
The tech in the other hand.. look really good.
The bad? the giant black tacos and the knockoff stargate ring looks really awful during day.


Also found that unlike illuminations... you have to be either near American pavilion or the center of the lake on the other side to see the ring projections.
We watched from Japan and it was kinda hard to see everything.

tomorrow.. last day and magic kingdom!
Have fun and safe travels home
