Early disappointment.
Falco and I were at the playground today, and a cop walked by. (The police station is just up the street.) Falco said, “Look, there’s a policeman! Hi, Policeman!” He stopped to talk to Falco for a minute and asked if he was going to be there playing for a while. He said that he was going to go get some stickers and would be back in 10 minutes. Falco waited. Falco talked about the policeman coming back. Falco talked about what the sticker would look like. Falco never saw that cop again. We waited for close to 40 minutes and finally left. It’s best he learns early that 5-0 are not to be trusted.
