fun.

fun.

this was a
fun day.
you were tired,
and maybe just
a little unreasonable.
so i picked you
up and dropped
you into a
beanbag chair to
try to
make you laugh.
it worked.
you made me
do it like, 500 times.
so many times,

while you laughed
in my face.
glad to see
you also got your
mom’s sense of humor.
