Old Try: Ritual Print – 13×20

This was the drill.

Every night, 7:00pm. That’s what you had to do with four boys under five years old. No complaining. “You’ve got to go to bed cause bed will help you grow up big and strong and smart, so go wash your face. Don’t forget to brush.” Get a book. ‘Dear Heavenly Father…’ Hugs, kisses, see you in the morning. Now that we’ve got a little one of our own on the way, I feel good. Cause I got a drill. A checklist. So she’ll grow up big and strong and smart.
