Video Killed The Parenting Star
Wyatt: Hey, Pop.
Me: Hi, guys.
Boone: Why do you look all flat?
Me: This is a video chat.
Boone: I don't get it. Where are you?
Me: I'm actually on the other side of the country. This is like a phone call, but you can see me on this computer screen.
Wyatt: Okay. That's why you look smaller.
Boone: It looks like television.
Me: It is like television, sort of.
Boone: So, you're with Elmo?
Me: No, it's not—
Boone: But, you said it was like television. Elmo's on television.
Wyatt: Hey, bro. Elmo's over here on this screen.
Boone: Elmo!
Me: Guys... Can you turn off the TV?... Hey, guys...
Wyatt: Quiet, pop. We're watching Elmo.
Me: Come on. I don't know when I'm coming home. I miss you.
Boone: What's the big deal? You're here on that screen.
Wyatt: Yeah, dude. It's like you never left.
Me: Don't you want to talk to me?
Boone: Quiet. Elmo's on.

Most of the time when I’m using my laptop, I’m sitting on my couch with my feet on an ottoman.
Scout used to come sit beside me in the space between the ottoman and the couch.
When I would put my feet down, I’d have to look first to make sure I wouldn’t step on him.
I still do this, even though he’s not there.
Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human...
