Next time you just might.

How about if I pour this water over your head and find out if your statement is true ?

Don’t tempt me.

Hey, kid. How’d you like a fat ear to go with that?

“Just to be safe, I should dump this on your head!”

It’s so difficult to find good help nowadays.

Quiet you little brat…you woke me from a dream I didn’t want to end…

And if we’re good the next glass will take maybe five minutes.

Time for a Camelbak.

“That was the only thought which slowed me.”

My 17 month old grand daughter likes to bring things to me to observe, then she usually takes them back but not always. She also likes to hand me whatever I ask for.

(It is totally separate from the fact she likes me to lift her to the candy canister. Sheer coincidence. I have come to sympathize more with addicts. If saying no to drugs is half as hard as saying no to Harper would be — if I ever am able to — that would be HARD.)

If we are to suspend disbelief that a baby in a crib can read a watch/clock/ whatever, then I have no, problem with dad hanging the monster upside down in a tree for the rest of the night.

OK, I’ll try a little harder, to be a little longer next time.
