Sorry About That

"Dad, remember when you pinched my fingers in the salad spinner?"

"Yes, Elsie. You were helping me clean the salad and we really got it spinning. Sorry about that."

"Remember when I fell and did a backflip off the big girl swing at Ribfest?"

"Yes, I remember that one."

"Remember when you let go of my balloon in Wegman's parking lot and we watched it sail away together?"

"Yes, that was sad."

"Remember playing tennis with Ava and Chris and one of your forehand shots whacked me in the forehead?"

"Yeah Else, you looked at me and said, 'Why Daddy?' Sorry about that."
