the Bravest Daddy in the World

The other night, Jeff promised the girls Pokemon cards. He went to Walmart and wasn't back before I put them to bed. The girls pleaded to stay up and wait for their Pokemon cards, but I steadfastly refused (for which I was called a meanie) and told them the cards would be there tomorrow.
Shortly after I told them this, Jeff came home with the cards, and took them into the girls' room. They asked if they could open them, and Jeff was happy to play the hero and open the packages. Brynnlee told Jeff he "was the bravest Daddy in the whole world for opening the Pokemon cards even after Mommy said NO".

Well, every girl needs a knight in shining armor and a dragon for him to defy, right?
