Nothing to do with fatherhood but it just reminded me of another favourite rhyme I'd all but forgotten... The rain it raineth on the just And also on the unjust fella; But chiefly on the just, because The unjust steals the just's umbrella. Actually, with the amount of toy stealing crises I'm resolving at the moment , maybe it does have something to do with fatherhood after all. Fergus I love that rhyme.

The rain it raineth on the just
And also on the unjust fella;
But chiefly on the just, because
The unjust steals the just’s umbrella.

Actually, with the amount of toy stealing crises I’m resolving at the moment , maybe it does have something to do with fatherhood after all.
