All true. Quote:3rd baby: You wipe it off on your shirt and pop it back in. Or, You give it to the 2nd born and let him/her lick the fuzz and dirt off, then pop it back in. |
| It shouldn't be funny, but it is.

Knew we had exceeded our limit after two. Couldn't imagine having to go in three directions at once - Didn't go there either. GOD bless and watch over those that have. Tom

| Don't overlook the fact that if you survive the infancy stages of parenting - you start believing you've got everything under control - you start believing you've done everything right....... Then they morph into teenagers and you realize you've made a terrible mistake. By the way we have two really great young adults at home who are convinced they already know more than we do. We're convinced they're just out to get us. Tom
