Chopped Liver

“Dad, I don’t want to go riding with you today, I want to play with Emma instead.”

What? Since when does he ditch me to go and play with some kid down the street? And to make it worse, she’s a girl! He’s only 5. Surely he should still hate girls until he’s at least 11.

If you’re a parent of a young child let me warn you that there comes a time in your life when you become nothing more than chopped liver. And just like real liver, it tastes pretty awful.

On the bright side, I did get a few minutes of quality time with my wife. At least she still likes me. Well, sometimes.

My 3 year old has been pitching a fit every day for the past week because he wants “Shell-sea” to babysit him. Oh yeah, she’s fun and a college girl and brings him popsicles but will she be there for him when he’s got crap coming out of both ends? I think not. Humpfh.
