Jelly

Daddies thinking about you
What are you thinking about?
Are you scared? 
Daddy saw a taco mayo
I don't know if you would eat it
Mommy would
I want to hold you
When daddy held you last he had a gut feeling
Something was happening
I changed one more diaper 
Fed you one more bottle
In our home
I didnt know that would be the last time
That I would feed you 
Its been 24 days son
24.....hey son whats 24 minus 1? Haha ask your mommy that one... she gets it. She got a lot of daddies jokes. But just like everyone else. When daddies jokes don't cut it anymore. They don't want to be around him anymore. Maybe daddy isn't  funny. I hope you think I'm  funny. I hope you don't leave me too.
