A Friendly Wager

It's that time of year again...SUPERBOWL! Next Sunday is the Superbowl and even though my favorite team didn't make it (the Patriots) I've found a way to still make it enjoyable for me to watch...make a bet with my dad. We've done this for the past few years and it makes the game exciting for me. Last year I won!! The bet was if my dad won then I'd have to grow my hair out for the year. If I won, he had to pay for my next haircut and he couldn't make a single negative comment about my hair all year. I have to admit that he's done an excellent job. Only a few more days dad and then you can make all the comments you want! So, this year he's rooting for the Colts and I'm rooting for the Saints. Even if he hadn't chosen the Colts first I still would have picked the Saints. I love Austin Collie...but I'm still upset about the Colts beating the Patriots for the Superbowl a few years back. And I love the underdog anyway. So, I gave him the option for one more year of me growing my hair out. I figure his chances are pretty good this year to win. But if I win he has to have my kids over for a sleepover...all three of them. Now, he says that he'll only take those who are potty trained but I say if I have to grow my hair out for a whole year then he should be able to handle a little diaper changing right? Besides, I didn't say when the sleepover had to be...who knows? Nate could be a genius at this potty training thing and be trained in a month! So, what do you think? Potty trained or hair is fair? Should he have to take Nathan for a sleepover even if he's not potty trained or should I cut him some slack?
