being a traditionalist, for our 5th anniversary I had to find something wooden. I found a beautiful handmade, inlaid backgammon set for my wife.
my 3 y.o. daughter just discovered the backgammon set over the weekend. she knows she isn’t to touch it or play with it yet. so of course that’s all she wants to do. she had a few questions for mom about it:
“It’s a backgammon board. Your dad gave it to me for our anniversary.”
“You mean your birthday?”
“No, I mean my anniversary”
“From when you were married?”
“Yes”
“Daddy sure is nice” (yes, he is)
“Yes, he is” (good answer)
“Will Daddy buy me one when I get older?”
“Yes, if you like backgammon”
“Will I need to be married?” (wha?)
“No, just older”
“Like you?”
“Yes, old like mommy” (O_o)
