A post from The Daddy Man:
Kimmy had to work late the other night, so she told me to take Biscuit out on a dad/son date. I asked Biscuit where he wanted to go, and no surprise, he wanted the pancake rest-au-rant. He still says it in three very distinct syllables.
We're pretty strict about him holding our hands in parking lots, so as soon as we got out of the car, I grabbed his hand.
As soon as we got to the sidewalk, Biscuit said, "Dad, can I go now?"
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"Can I gallop like a horse on the sidewalk?" Biscuit asked.
"Yeah, you can go ahead," I told him.
"Dad, tell me to take the point," Biscuit said. In a John Wayne movie we watch together ("She Wore a Yellow Ribbon"), John Wayne's character tells Ben Johnson's character to take the point, meaning that he rides out front and scouts ahead.
"Okay, Boy, you take the point," I said.
Biscuit took off in a gallop yelling, "Yeehah! Yeehah! Yeehah!"
