As father to one of the two greatest progeny the world has ever known, it was me who threw the "bottla" (Becca's incipient word for bottle) into a cornfield on the road trip. The unbelievable thing was that even being prevarbal she was able to recount the incident latter in life. Please do not write a "Daddy Dearest" .....
I am truly blessed to be Becca's dad.
