WunderWife needed to clean the house today and the lovely WunderKid3 is not what you would call “helpful” in that regards. Unless you define “helpful” as going behind you and messing up the rooms you just cleaned…
Anyway, I needed to go to the store and we are having our dear friends Mr. and Mrs. Crotalus over for a cookout tonight, so I needed to stock up on goodies. I offered to take WunderKid3 with me. It would help the wife and it gives me some time with my girl.
I’ve always called her the prettiest girl in the world, but now that we are about to bring home our second daughter, I’m going to have to rework that because, gosh darnit, they are both the prettiest girls in the world!
Since we are most likely leaving this Thursday, I wanted to take her out to breakfast for some daddy-daughter time. It will be the last time she will be my “Only Girl”. She is very excited about Baby Mei coming home and she will be a wonderful big sister, but we have noticed some behavior issues lately that tell me she is struggling with not being Daddy’s only girl. It’s been like this with all our children. It’s a transition period for them all.
So where does one take their 3 year old daughter for breakfast? Why Waffle House of course!!! (points to the banner at the top of the site)
It was very crowded and as I drove through the parking lot I told her that I didn’t see any open seats. She piped up and said, “That’s ok. We can sit and wait and someone will leave.” Hey, when my baby wants Waffle House…she wants Waffle House…a girl after my own heart….
We waited just a little bit and then two chairs came open at the counter, so we ordered up waffles and bacon for her and the biggest, greasiest breakfast for me!
No it’s not coffee, it’s a Coke…
Me and my girl
Daddy’s breakfast!
From there it was off to Target and then Wal-Mart. All in all, a pretty good day.
Just think, in a week, I will have two Daddy’s Girls!

What a great blog! And you are certainly blessed with one of the prettiest girls in the world. I have to say, to me, my little girl (17 years little!) is the prettiest girl in the world. Transisitions can be challenging. I remember bringing my daughter home and my son, who was 5 at the time, wanted us to take her back! Well…17 years later they have finally started to get a long. Anyways, I enjoyed your blog, primarily because it made me hungry and I love resturante breakfasts.
Just wait till I start blogging from China next week…talk about interesting food
I re-read my comment. You know, English is my first language. Despite my grammer and spelling skills!!
I hope your trip is safe and fun!!
Don’t worry about it Michael.

Ah, I don’t feel like such a..er..loser? looser? hmmm…..well..I don’t feel so stoopid!!
I am a chemist and a lot of stuff I read is technical. One word that I have to know and understand is the word rheological. It is without fail that most technical papers will have the word theological when the author meant rheological. Some of us have become completely and blindly dependent on word checks! Thanks for the links to your past blogs!
