C'MON PAPA

C’mon Papa
The gauntlet tossed
The challenge…

Ten rounds
With a 2 year old

Speed vs stealth
Experience vs enthusiasm
Age vs agility

Castle builder vs the siege
Best two out of three cookies
Co-Co melon is not a fruit

C’mon Papa
Let’s go OUTSIDE…..

The seige will wipe out your castle in one fell swoop every time he asks you to build it again. Co-Co melon is easier on you, despite having to listen to "Wheels on the Bus" many times over. But you'll continue to pick up that gauntlet like I do because that's what grandparents do. Our littles are good exercise. Enjoy him, Papa, for he's growing much too quickly. Sweet write, John.
