Ya gotta give yourself more leeway than that, bambi. But kids 're like that too. I know ya know. You're around 'em as much as I am. Just give yourself some time.

They say that, don't they? That it just clicks? I don't think it's true. I think ya gotta learn it just like anythin' else. And it's always different when it's -your- kid, y'know?

Yeah, you just-- Look, ya don't bee me to tell ya that ya just had a whole baby. You're gonna be tired. You're gonna feel like ass. That's what I'm for.

I know it is. Ain't any of it easy, 'specially not on you. But I'll do whatever I gotta. Ya know that. Don't matter what it is. I'm the dad. That's my job. ... Well, nah. Job ain't the right word. But ya know what I mean.

Ain't even lunch time, and these kids 're on it today. I swear, when I find out who's givin' 'em straight sugar for breakfast, we're gonna fight.

I thought this, too, 'cause there's a sweet smell comin' out of the kitchen. I know he's been in there bakin'. If he's been passin' out candy... I might beat him. Its almost lunch, so I'll pop in there. Ya want me to bring ya anythin'?

He best be glad I like him at all. Not a problem. A big sandwich, huh? Whatcha want on it?

I'll even bring ya food. 'Cause I just made some. And ya can consider it a peace offerin'. I'll also take the young'in.

I ain't mean to be gone so early today. Was helping out with some weekend stuff. But I'm done. And I wanted to eat with ya, so I just went ahead and did this too. 'Cause ya probably ain't ate, huh? Tsk. I'm comin' up. I just made some sandwiches for now.
