ALBERT’S TURN

It’s Albert’s turn
for the grand tour of
The Dancing Pancake.
He said he had a good visit
with his mother
but he’s glad to be home.

Like Megan,
Albert thinks
it’s really cool
to be part of a restaurant.
Thet lets Albert have a turn
at being the dishwasher.
He loses control of the spray nozzle!
Ruby Frances lets him
bring extra butter
to one of the tables.

Albert meets Dr. Bingo
and Mrs. Coleman,
Grace and Officer Pike.
I point out Mike the mechanic.
I tell Albert I am
keeping an eye on Mike.
I tell him I don’t like
the way he flirts with my mom.
Albert asks why it bothers me
so much.
“Are you expecting your dad
to come back?” he asks.
Oh.
Am I?
