Is It Good To Be the King

Honey carry this

Dad the toilet is overflowing

Can you move the sofa there instead

Does this smell bad

Just three more stores Honey

You can build that easy

Sorry about the truck Daddy

Dad can you fix this

Honey I think it's time we repainted

Oh did you already finish Dad, I would have helped you

We didn't know you wanted to eat

Honey take out the garbage

Oh just put it in Dad's garage

And best of all it goes together in 4000 easy steps

Sorry about the report card

Honey turn that down

Damn you stink go take a shower

Will you start my car its cold out

I think it's time we repainted, don't you Honey

Dad I need to be picked-up at...Don't Forget

Honey I like the room better the other way

Tell Dad there's groceries in the car

I told my parents you'd build them an addition...Here

I think the septic tank is full...Honey

Did we clean those gutters

I thought we'd move the garden over there

Dad can I use your credit card

By we, I mean you Honey

I know it's the color I picked, but it's not the color I want...repaint it

Is It Good To Be The King?


I love you Daddy

Thanks Honey

Cool thanks Pop

I love you too Dad

Your the best Daddy


Yeah, It's Good
