I wish ta be happy happy

It's becum easier since becumen a pappy
With a we baby on me lappy 
Some tink me silly and a bit sappy
I don't even mind changin his nappy
It's funny da weird tings dat make me happy!

I like ta dress him up
Not wantin him ta be shabby 
and reflect badly on his mammy
So on is head I place da cutest cappy
He loves ta laugh, in da breeze dis cappy is flappy
How could I be anythin udder den happy
Me an baby an his sweet little mammy!

Very sweet and funny. What a proud dad. Wonderful joy and humor here. The joy they bring is priceless. I'm reminded of my daughter, and the wonderful years she gave me when she was a toddler. This one Richard put a needed smile on my face. Thanks for sharing. Have a great day.
