That Time You Were on TV


Dear Etrain,

It was sometime in January and you and I were doing our usual thing in the morning. You finished play and breakfast with Dada, then you guys came to wake me up in bed. You and I hang out in the bathroom while Dada gets ready for work. You love to open the cabinets and pull everything out. It's not my favorite thing, but it keeps you entertained and happy so I let you do it. You hair was extra fluffy that morning, so of course I whipped out my phone to take a photo. You love to grab at the phone, and you must have hit the record button because we took a video instead of a selfie.



I managed to snap a few photos of you and your silly hair. The photos weren't great (mostly blurry), so I didn't really think about them again. Then about a month later, your dad said he needed a photo of you that would work for a meme; meaning, it had to be sort of silly. I scrolled through a bunch of photos and sent a few to your dad, including this one.

He told me one of the commercials he was working on had a meme wall, and he wanted to get you onto the wall. This sounded sort of silly to me, but hey, if it means you could end up in one of his commercials, I'm in. Sure enough, you made the wall...and in a prime spot too. Needless to say you had two very proud parents, even if it was just a photo in the background in a commercial. Your dad could give you all the stats of where and how many times it aired, but lets just say I saw that commercial a bunch, and I loved finding you in it each time. I circled you in the first photo on this post.

I think your dad saved the commercial, so I'll have him add it to this post later. He has a pretty cool job, doesn't he?!

Love,
Mama

P.S. We found the video! I forgot to mention, not only were you in a commercial, you were in a commercial that ran on Super Bowl Sunday.
