Mount Daddy Olympus

A recent ritual from my young son:
  • I arrive home and my young son proceeds to ask to climb up the dad.
  • He quickly scales my body with, as yet, no permanent damage done.
  • He pretends to plant a flag in my head, and proclaims:
  • "I have climbed Mount Daddy Olympus, and fallen from it",
  • as he immediately then enacts a fall and laughs as he slides down to my feet.
I have enjoyed these small moments of fun with my son and record it here that I might not forget a little boy full of life creating a homecoming for me.
