Active Attack

What do you do when Mommy and baby are away?

Daddy and daughter get to play!

Rough house and run

Soccer and giggles

Scream a bit louder, the glasses do clatter

Short …

Pause…

Hide and seek

Couchy trampoline,

Piano duets

And tickle attacks

To bed a bit late

A futile attempt

To tucker her out

It wasn’t enough,

Still quite alert

She’s in this space

Between needing that nap

And too much daytime snooze,

Will dad ever get his evenings back?

  1. She looks SO much like you did when you were a toddler. I remember seeing the same resemblance in Beth and me when she was just a tad older. It's almost eerie.
