Shoved to Them
We had a young single woman we know over for dinner on Friday night. She was talking about marriage and how the people she knows don’t really know if that “piece of paper” is really all that important. I was beginning in on a long winded explanation of why marriage is a good thing, when my husband said in his calm and quiet voice, “It’s good for your soul. I don’t just mean in the go-to-Heaven way. Marriage brings you joy and calm and peace. I honestly don’t know where I’d be without my wife.”
Sigh….he’s pretty dreamy.

I don’t know what my three year old will grow up to be, but I’m pretty sure he won’t be an English teacher. This weekend, he said to me:
“My cup is yuck. You shall be please to be washing my cup.”
“How shall to be that flag get up there?”
About his little brother..”Can I want to kiss him?”

I would like to find the previous owner of our house and let him know that he’s not as handy as he imagines himself to be. Note to him: you can’t hot glue pipes together, or install showers without shower pans or paint the outside of a house with interior paint. Just because it’s pretty doesn’t mean it works.
Please hire professionals next time.

We were hanging out with friends this afternoon and playing a version of the Newlywed Game. I didn’t miss a single question about the Computer Guy. My friend was surprised that I got them all correct. I’m not. I love him.

I’m weaning the baby this week. It’s time. It makes me sad that he won’t be as much a baby, but glad to get my body back.

I took my daughter bra shopping this weekend. Why are my bras plain and boring, but hers can’t be bought in a plain version? The closest we found were beige with rhinestones in a heart. Who do they think is going to be seeing it? She’s 13. What kind of pedophile is designing girls’ underwear? It’s a sad day when we end up shopping for her at Victoria’s Secret because their bras are the most age appropriate.

There is chocolate pie in the kitchen. It is calling to me. I’d better go do my yoga.
