A House (or a Cael) Divided

You say "cheese" with your whole body.
For the second time in our
six years of wedded bliss,
Mom's team (Redskins)
and Dad's team (Steelers)
played each other.
The first time they played
was actually on our anniversary.
The Steelers won,
and Dad spent the night on the couch.

This time, they played
close to our anniversary date,
but not on it.
Mom decked out the
living room in all things 'Skins,
which you loved.
You played with everything,
pretending most of them
were monsters in disguise,
ala Scooby Doo.
I'm glad you were able to
add levity to the situation,
as Mom's team lost, again.

This time, I took the loss a little better.
Dad got to sleep in the bed,
and I even put on your Steelers' shirt
(although I think you look much better in the Redskins' outfit).

Maybe next time...
