Today is a two-fer.
#1. I’m eating my burger king, sitting on the couch, watching TV, and Nariah comes up to me with something hidden behind her back.
“Daddy, I have a surprise for you and you don’t know what it is!”
“Really? Cool, what is it?”
“Its from school, my first set of pictures!” as she gets ready to pull them out.
“Now Nariah, you know I showed them to you first right? I was there and picked them up from school yesterday, remember?”
“Oh yeah… well, I’m still going to show you. You just pretend like you’ve never seen them before and act really surprised ok?”
Insert surprised look by daddy here…
#2. Later on, I’m giving Nariah a bath, and rinsing her hair because she had swimming lessons today. She reaches around blindly asking me for the wash cloth so that she can wipe her face. After she finishes wiping her face, she looks up at me with squinted eyes and the most pitiful face ever and says, “Daddy, I think my eyes are allergic to the water“, then she pouts.
Very very hard to keep from laughing in her face.
