Years will go by before I change a bulb.
["I'll help you fix it, Ollie," I said: photos GAH]
After Ollie’s mum showed us how to attach a wooden trailer to a toy truck I said, “I think Ollie and I can do it now.”
Ollie began to sing, to the tune of Frere Jacques:
“Ollie’s papa, Ollie’s papa,
Cannot do it,
Cannot do it.”
["You can't do it, you can't do it"]
All the adults were quite amused. And in his own three-year old, French-Canadian sing-song way, he made me happy that he’s going to be my buddy for a long time.
When I find time I'll teach him how to change a bulb.

PS - I do know how to attach the trailer.
