My kids never ask for something specific for Christmas — or for birthdays for that matter. But this year, after a few screenings of The Little Rascals, Dash has told everyone he knows that he wants a Go-Kart for Christmas. When we ask him if he wants a go-kart to be like Spanky, he furiously replies, “No…I want to be just like Butch!” (The bad guy.)

When my dad caught wind of this, he immediately sent in for a Go-Kart kit that he and Dash could put together. My dad had big dreams of Dash helping saw, nail and talk over the piecing together of the kart.

REALITY STRUCK!
-
My dad sawed, nailed and pieced…all while Dash knocked over, bumped, and stole everything. That being said, my Dad patiently went through the building process and made it complete.
And then he primed it, before sending it to Santa’s Workshop to be painted.
Dash is beyond excited to get the finished project!
And I think my dad really did enjoy the crazy time he spent with Dash.
Do you know what I am going to enjoy?
Dash’s footprints that cover our driveway from when my dad had the whole kart primed, then turned his back for one second, and turned back around to see a footprint path up and over the kart and down the driveway!
Dash — I think you got your wish.
You are just like Butch!
