Why Bill Needs a Boy

Chatter around the water cooler at work...

Aaron: My son is only 2 and it's so fun to watch football with him. He just sits right up next to me (hand pats his leg affectionately) and will stay there for the whole thing.

Bill: Yeah, that's pretty nice.

Rex: My nephew is pretty cool too. He'll watch any sports with me. It's awesome.

(long pause)...

Bill: Ya know, the new Tinkerbell movie came out last week. It looks pretty good.

(awkward silence, followed by stifled laughter)

That is soooo awesome, but also a reason why Bill is so good with girls. He gets it and accepts it. He and Justin have a pretty good bond. anytime he wants to borrow him for a boys' day he's more than welcome. Justin is athletic and will also watch sports. I think they'd have a good time.

It takes a real dad to be comfortable with the girlie stuff. It shows he has a bond with his daughters that most men don't have.

But...I agree...he needs a boy and doesn't have much longer to wait...he can watch sports with him until he can start throwing the ball around.

That is pretty classic. I do hope for a boy for you so you can experience the fun that is little boys. Come what may, and love it!

Bill - I can relate to when the boy moves and everything turns pink. Dave
