The Daddy Files - Let Sleeping Dogs Lie

Last night we were winding down for bed time when Harrison said to me, "I don't want mommy to put me to bed, I want daddy to put me to bed."

This has actually been the norm for the last couple of weeks. He is in a "daddy" phase.

He goes and climbs into the GID's lap and asks, "Daddy, you take me to bed? please daddy, Come on. Pleeease."

The GID responds, "No, I don't think so. I can't tonight. I think Dukie-dog is going to put you to bed tonight. What do you think of that?"

Short pause as Harrison glances at the sleeping dog.

He lifts his arms up palms out and exclaims, "Dukie has no hands!"

That is so cute! I hear things like that and remember how exactly toddlers live to be school aged children...
