Lessons in Fatherhood

1. It takes less than 2 minutes to lose a $2 glider airplane in the trees --even a tree drastically cut back from extensive hurricane damage.
2. It takes less than 15 minutes to damage a poorly functioning, remote-control airplane by crash landing it in 2 inches of water in the drainage ditch and then requires getting wet.
3. The little league is a bunch of robber-barons. They insist on you trashing your food and drinks and pay to enter the park.
4. Little children don't understand choosing to not trash $15 worth of food over entering a ball-park.
5. A child's mood can change from perfectly blissful to perfectly moody in less than 2 seconds --especially when no one seems to understand how, why, or where she pinched her finger.
