Are you my dad?


Eli went on a hunt for daddy tonight at Acacia...

Are you my dad?
Well, your bald like my dad and you have prickly stuff on your face, but my dad never wears maroon and he doesn't have a hitch in his giddy up.
Are you my dad?
Well, you're bald like my dad and you have prickly stuff on your face, but you have some grey stuff in your goatee and I think you are a little older than my dad.

Are you my dad?
Well you have some prickly stuff on your face and a big cheesy grin like my dad, but you have WAY too much hair to be him and when you hold me I am a lot further from the ground than when my dad holds me


Well Eli had no luck finding his daddy tonight.
He looked high and low, he searched amongst the follicly challenged and those with lovely locks, he nuzzled scruffy faces, and patted some round bellies... but to no avail. There was no daddy to be found. But he wasn't discouraged, because in the process he found his uncle John, poppi Jack, and uncle Blake.

We miss you daddy!
