Memorandum

To: Lincoln David Merrill
From: Your father

Welcome to your new home. If this is going to work, we have to establish some ground rules.
  • No peeing on Daddy. So far, so good, although that's probably due more to the fact that I've changed one diaper and your mother has done about a dozen.
  • Sleep at least two hours at a stretch. You actually did quite well last night, dozing from 11-1 and 3-5. Keep that up and you'll attend a very nice college.
  • Do everything your sister says. We don't have the energy to deal with an unhappy 2-year-old.
  • Teethe before you're 1.
  • Potty train before you're 2.
  • But don't grow up too fast; this is our last go-round with an infant.
