Soon, very soon

I know you've been lonely.
I know you've been anxious to get out and play.
Yes, not having anything to do is boring, and
you really want to go outside.
The days have been hard on me, too, you know.
I have good news.
Your brother will be back on Monday.
If you can hold out until then we'll have a celebration.
We'll go outside and you can run and play until you fall down.
I know, Yippee!
