We have entered the stage.
The stage where as parents we realize what we had children for.
That's right.
Labor.
No, not the kind where you push him (He was a c-section babe, hello! 11 pounds, 1 ounce, 15mm head....I was not pushing THAT out!).
The kind of labor where you say:
"Cheeks, run upstairs & get mommy her bag"
"Son, get daddy his sneakers"
"Cheeks, you made the spill, get a towel & help clean it up"
It's refreshing.
Really.
I'm thinking of hiring him out.
We could use the extra cash.
I know. I know. It's fleeting.
In a few short years I will have to bribe him to do anything.
I'm not above bribery....remember we have an 11 yo & a 16 yo.
For now, we have a more than eager helper.
And I, as his mother, want to nurture that side of him.
Now where is he? I need the van washed!
Late!

Great stage, eh? LOL!!! Don't forget to hand his the kitchen cloth and have him wipe the table off after a meal. LOL!!!
We joke about this all the time! Colt loves to watch his Dad through the windows when he mows the grass - and we always joke about how we can't wait for him to be the one out there!!
Nice, Meghan...real nice. Follow my new blog...yes yes you must!
