Dave was able to finish his letter to Alex for his baptism book. ALEXANDER and the BIG DAY Get up Grandpa, get up and get ready, It’s time to go, and don’t call me Betty. Today’s the big day we’ve been waiting for, Come on and get up, get your pants off the floor. So Grandpa got up, got up to get ready, And said to Grandma, what’s wrong with Betty? I’m up and I’m ready and bright as an apple, I’m ready to go to Alex’s chapel. To see him Baptized and Confirmed by his Dad, This is the biggest day he ever has had. It’s bigger than teeth falling out of his head, It’s bigger than jumping on Grandmother’s bed, While she’s still asleep with dreams in her head. So off to the chapel we both were so ready, Grandpa and Grandma, whose name is not Betty. So Alex was splashed down under the water, He pinched on his nose while his Dad dunked him harder. Then Alex stood up, as wet as a fish, The kind Grandpa eats that tastes so delish. H
