He looks like a NASCAR driver.

- Strike!

- Come on!

It's okay, buddy! Shake it off! It's okay!

Oh, no. He's not gonna have

one of his meltdowns, is he?

No. He has two more swings.

It's gonna be okay.

Okay. I better go now, then.

Oh, by the way, I need a week off.

Oh, yeah, sure. When's the vacation?

Two weeks from today.

Wait. No. That's not gonna work.

Because that's spring break

and I've gotta take care of the boys.

- Strike two!

- Why?

It's okay, cutie, you got this!

Check out what happens

when this kid strikes out.

- You have been warned, Ratso!

- One more comment and it is go time!

- I will crush you!

- So checkity check it!

I thought Mark was taking the kids

whitewater rafting.

Oh, shocker. He canceled.

Business trip.

Now I'm racking my brain trying to figure out

how to compete with that.

You won't. There's no time.

And why should we both stay at home?

You are the bestest

business partner ever. Heh.

- Strike three!

- I hate this!

I hate this! I hate this! I suck!

No.

Oh, boy. Here we go again.

Oh, God.

Maybe you should try badminton.

- Maybe you should try mouthwash!

- And deodorant!

- And some testosterone supplement!

- And some Cialis!

I'm just assuming!

And shave your neck!

It's very hairy.

God.

What?

Ugh.

No.

Damn it.

Rip that little loop off the back of your shirt.

And Step Three...

- Daddy?

- Yes.

What do you miss about Mommy?

What do I miss about Mommy?

Hmm.

Everything.

I miss her laugh.

And her smile.

And I miss her little nose

that she gave to you.

Luckily you didn't get mine.

You'd look very weird.

- Heh.

- Yeah.

I miss every time The Wizard of 02 was on.

- I love that movie.

- I know.

She would sing all the songs to us.

Especially "Somewhere Over the Rainbow."

You know what I miss most about her?

What?

Getting to tell her how much I love her.

Are you allowed to do that with anyone else?

Am I allowed?

Your mother, before she left...

...that's all she would talk about,

was me finding somebody else.

But I would tell her I can't

because she's my one and only.

What did Mommy say?

Your mom would say...

...my heart is so big that it has room for two.

That's another thing

I miss about your mother.

She actually thought I was awesome.

I think you're awesome, Daddy.

Thank you.

Hey, Dad? Um...

I have a personal errand to run,

and I need to borrow the car.

Well, you can't drive without me yet...

...and somebody's got to stay

here with your sisters.

Dad, I have a personal errand.

What does that even mean?

You taking a hit out on somebody?

Dad, she's monsterating.

- What?

- I have my period!

Oh. I forgot you get those.

"Tampax Pearls."
