It obviously goes without saying that I pick up little things from my parents, e.g., I get short-tempered when playing Super Mario Bros just like daddy does. He says it is because he gets so worked up and wants to win. It gets kind of annoying to me when he is telling me not to go there or do that in the game, but that doesn’t stop me from doing the exact same thing to mommy or grannie when they play with  me. There are a number of things I’ve picked up from both parents, but I want to talk about one specific thing I picked up from mommy.

We just love us some April Fool’s Day. For 23 years of daddy’s life, he never really had anyone try to trick him on April 1st, but about 15 years ago, someone started – mommy. And about 2 years ago, daddy had to worry about 2 people – mommy and ME!

This year, daddy had to go out of town and grannie was taking me to school since mommy was working. Daddy always stresses when someone other than mommy or him take me to school because of the routine, etc. I thought this was the perfect scenario for me to take advantage and I had grannie text him saying I had a fever and needed to stay home. Daddy started freaking because he was out of town, mommy was at work, and he didn’t want grannie to have to stay home with me. We finally told him he was an April Fool. Mommy was proud of me for thinking of that all by myself. Oh daddy, you’re such an easy mark. I’m still laughing.

I only look sweet
