President's Day with Daddy



Oh, how the tables have turned. Prez Day was never a holiday for Daddy and always a day off for Mommy. Now Daddy is on extended (hopefully temporary) holiday and Mommy actually had to go to work. Elliot asked Daddy to go to the playground. It was cold and Daddy wasn't sure he (not Elliot) could handle the elements. Elliot dragged Daddy out of bed (where it is warm) and watched while Daddy prepared to brave the weather.



We hit the empty playground. Not ten minutes and the place was packed. Elliot is a true visionary, children follow. He played on the big wood truck while Daddy rested. Elliot then played on the little plastic slide while Daddy again rested. Last he played under the wood triangle thing while Daddy looked on. Daddy got hungry so he forced Elliot to leave literally kicking and screaming. Then Elliot rested taking a nap on the stroller ride home. All in all, Daddy would do it again if someone twisted his arm. Happy President's Day.
