Enslavement?

Big Boy #2: "Who's babysitting us?"
Me: "Daddy. But it's not called babysitting, it's called parenting."
BB2: "It's called slavery right? 'Cuz you don't get paid."

Hmm. He has a point...

Diamond Dave the Love Slave was a kickname Diamond had long before I ever knew him. He earned the title his freshman year at BYU. While the stories always vary at least a bit, the idea was that he kept blowing off his buddies to hang out with his girlfriend.

The name stuck, and all of our old college friend still call him Diamond to this day. It's also my main pet name for him. "Diamond" is even enscribed on the inside of his wedding band.
