"Dad, I can't wait until I grow up so I can be a Dad with a big belly and hairy armpits!" Yikes.
At 5, I'm starting to worry I'll never be the preferred parent, so I've had to step up my fun quotient. I've dusted off my baseball glove, brought treats home after my runs and taken him to his favorite place to eat - the sushi restaurant. He polished off two raw fish tuna tekka rolls. That's 16 pieces! Sushi may become an expensive habit for us.
His favorite spot is at the bar in front of the sushi chef. "Mom, can I talk to him?" "Sure." "Excuse me, did you catch all this fish? Can I have my tekka roll in 10 pieces? Okay, eight?"
They grow up so fast.
