Wouldn’t it be amusing is some day far down the road she did wind up marrying Jack?
Sorry, didn’t mean to twist the knife.

I agree you’re an awesome dad.

Have you ever asked her what “marriage” might mean to her? This could create great material for another post.

Even at 12, my boy came back home one day and started talking about a girl in his percussion ensemble. When we asked him if he liked her, he said, “I don’t know. I’ll have to see if she can play first”…

Say it early and often. It’ll likely stick.

I love how it is so simple. I love to play with him. Kids are just perfect.

Great to teach her now. I had way too many friends wanting bad boys. When someone treats you right, you have a healthy and happy life together. of course, it also works both ways.

Damn straight they have to treat you right. I can only imagine how that must have stopped your heart, but I’m glad she heard what you were saying.

I can just hear her little voice saying, “I’m serious, Daddy.” Love it.

Baylee thinks she’s going to marry Brayden. I keep telling her that, depite living in Louisiana, that’s just not okay.

Let’s hope when she leaves cookies on his door step, he calls to say “thank you”.

I married my wife because I liked to play with her too! But I’m nice to her. And no Queen allowed (definitely not the more recent albums).
