I could see this being a country-type song, minor key, some old deep-voiced cowpoke maybe except he'd be a dragon-poke. I love it!
1. One thing I learned: my parents didn't make big decisions without talking it over with each other, and praying. They were very different personality types: my dad was quiet, Mom is more of a forceful type, but they were a team. They worked together.
2. I might've when I was smaller. I don't remember playing specifically. We did have some great water balloon fights, though. :)
3. Going over to my father in law's house to show off my daughter's fairy princess costume. And then probably going back home: we did a trunk-or-treat event earlier in the month, and it looks like rain this week, so we lucked out.
I imagined a retired medieval knight penning this by a cozy fire, living a well-earned quiet lifestyle. Lovely!
1) They taught me the importance of family, even if we're far. We're still in contact with our relatives in my parents home countries, and in the case of our Cuban side, we'll send meds or clothing as needed.
2) We're not a sports family, so my dad opted for bike rides and bookstore trips.
3) None this year, which is a bummer tbh! I missed out on the Halloween parties last weekend. I have a barista shift on Halloween, so maybe I'll come across some ghouls.
I saw an father singing this as he held his baby. Very good.
1. What is something you learned from your parents or parent figures by observing them? -- How to cook. Neither of my parents follow recipes, though my mum owns plenty of cookbooks, and simply look at what's in the pantry or what's in the shop and craft a meal from scratch. I quickly learned lots of meals start in similar ways, such as frying onions and garlic for anything from bolognese to curry or softening veg for stews, pie fillings, etc.
2. You ever play catch with your dad? -- No, my dad and I played a lot of boardgames though. Carcassonne, Go, Canasta, and similar games.
3. What are you doing for halloween? -- I didn't do anything for Halloween this year, new baby and health problems meant it was a quiet one, I think I was in bed by 9pm.
