Traditions of our Fathers

I was fortunate enough to wake up before Melissa on Saturday morning. Usually she is the one who is the early bird getting the worm but not on this particular Saturday morning. By doing so I was rewarded with the benefits of passing on a "tradition of our fathers". Call it coercion, persuasion, convincing, brainwashing, instruction, or whatever methods are used to gain an ally in the attempt to win another Cougar fan in the home, I went forward in such a venture, claiming that it was a "tradition of our fathers. What resulted nearly brought tears to my eyes and screams from the room as Melissa awoke to such a scene:
It is unfortunate that such a scene couldn't spur the Cougars on to victory. Perhaps mom should pass on the "tradition of her fathers". Better wake up a little earlier on Saturday!

Such a stunt probably spurred mom to have me make the breakfast this morning.Happily I obliged, in the hopes for peace and harmony in the home. At any rate, Parker was happy because he individually put raspberries in nearly every hole in the waffle.
