The Daddy Bench


Here is the bench. It has been designated, unspokenly so, as the official daddy bench. As families make the trek to the mall to attend to every whimsical desire by window shopping, occasionally making a purchase to satisfy the urge, one my stop and ask, "Where did dad go?" Just look outside the store, and there you will find him, chillin' on his bench. There are multiple daddy benches through out the mall. More than likely, they will always be occupied by a daddy. Some read books, others get stuck with the kids and wrestles around with them causing more co motion than necessary. Some chuck pennies to entertain themselves by watching little kids chase after them (you know who you are!), and others use the bench as a bed and take a nap. (I wanted to take more pictures to show the different dads, but I felt brave enough to have taken this one....)

Interesting.... My dad did the same thing. Now Preston's dad won't even go to the mall.

lol. this is funny. Tim and I saw a daddy couch the other day at the mall. He was so excited too, he announced that thats where he would be when he didn't want to go shopping with me.
