Old enough to be your father: aaaanddddd pay for it in the morning when the alarm clock goes off, then spend the rest of the day half crispy-fried, half collapsed in a heap. And that’s just Daddy! ???? Littles, on the other hand, are usually perky and fresh as a daisy… till they melt down completely, huh?
Old enough to be your father: Come to bed now, pumpkin. Let’s snuggle instead.
