In middle school, my art teacher afforded anyone who needed extra credit the option of designing and drawing a machine that would get you out of bed, dress you, brush your teeth, and make your breakfast. The only restriction was that it could not look like a mother. This strip reminds me of that, and also makes me realize that she didn’t preclude it looking like a father.

Watch out for your shoes, dad, Lio might have put a spring in your step!

First few panels, I thought Lio was doing a Wallace & Gromit homage…

Poor dad eats flax cereal… Probably forces down kale for supper…

If I went through what Dad has just gone through, I would not be feeling very springy. Chances are, Lio would be experiencing fall!
