Holding out for a Hero
This is a picture of a very confused little boy - all thanks to his father. His father can't decide what team to cheer for. I place most the blame on Toby's father. He's a BYU fan, but obviously he didn't teach sound doctrine in his home because both of his sons are U fans. Oh the shame! Toby says he's a fan of both and I say he can't do that. That would like saying you're a fan of God and the Devil! I never knew that my husband was a U fan. I always assumed that he was a BYU fan because he was a good person - I didn't find out until AFTER we were married that he was a U fan. If I had known before, there would have been some changes made. But since I found out after, I made him promise that he would not bring our children up to be U fans. He is not allowed to buy them any U of U merchandise, nor is he allowed to cheer for the U in the presence of our children. So far, I think this has gone pretty well. Megan knows who to cheer for, but after seeing this picture of my son wearing his dad's hat, I'm a little nervous. So this post is for you Toby - don't forget the promise you made me. And to all of you male role models that are involved in my children's life - please help me out, you're all I've got!

ReplyDeleteAlso, I cannot stop laughing at that picture of Sam in the glasses. love it!
You are telling my story! I found out Lance was a U fan the first year we were watching the BYU/Utah game together after we were married. I heard him cheer for Utah under his breath, and if looks could kill, he would have been dead! I was FURIOUS! After nine years I have come to accept it. he can wear his U attire, but like you, he is not to purchase any of it for our kids! Oh, the shame....
