Rylan asks, “Daddy, I can’t remember, 

did we play the Lego video game yesterday? 

Because you said we can’t play it every day 

and I was just wondering if you remembered?”

Patrick smiles, knowing full well he knows, 

“No, Rylan, we did not play the video game yesterday.”

“Oh, that’s great Dad. Now we can play, 

because I know how much you like to play video games.”

I am fairly certain the gingerbread house 

the boys and I just made would be condemned.

by my youngest taking care of business in his diaper under my desk. 

A good reminder to not take life too seriously.
