They’re Only 3 Once, So Take Advantage

DAILY SNACK

We were waiting in line for the requisite Canada Day hot dog,

When I noticed the swag table.

“Come with me, C,” and I took his hand,

Leaving Dad and L’il to keep our spots.

There was a basket full of paper flags.

You know the kind.

“Can I take three?”

One for me, one for Dad, and one for C.

Babies don’t get flags.

As far as Young C was concerned,

This was as good as it gets.
