I get to do ALL the writing when daddy sleeps or is under the weather...

Daddy Sleeps…by Rufuz


 


Geez he sleeps more than me,


All he does on weekends is sleep,


He does awaken at noon,


Sleeping again by two,


He NEVER sees the morning,


Let alone most of the afternoon…


 


Is he sick, has he been bitten by a bug?


I try to eat the bees and wasps,


Don’t want them to bite my daddy,


Maybe he was attacked by an errant slug…


 


But for now he is awake,


Maybe now we can eat that cake,


He says he has to stay near the toilet,


Guess he really is just a bit sick,


Maybe for the weekend he can just take a break…?

At least he has you to watch over him, Rufuz. I hope your daddy is feeling better soon so he can go outside and play with you!
Take care,
Sherry

I think he misses your mommy and sleep does help with that!!

Take care of him and keep those bugs under control...even those poopy bacterial bugs!!

Love Auntie Stinky

That could be it, Rufuz - but we should all take advantage of situations that might benefit us - now go eat that cake - before he wakes up!
