Easy Math

[(Thousands of diapers) + (Months of lost sleep) + (Peeing the bed) + (Peeing our bed) + (Catching throwup in my shirt at Costco) + (Cleaning the same off multiple restauant floors) + (All the wiping, in fact) + (The two times you put a sharpie to use on the walls) + (The fact I just had to spend a couple hundred on a new printer because my last one fell to it's death as you were climbing on the desk, after I had told you many times not to...) + (And anything else that'll come our way)]/x as x-->0

I got these out of the blue over the weekend, the first from Brian, the second from Alan.

Boy, kids know how to make parenting easy, don't they?

(That last one was made by Alan at school and it said on the cover "In Papa's arms, I feel safe." You just can't imagine how profoundly your children will grab you, before they do just that. And I also love that he gave me so much hair ;-))

Your kids are awesome.

That was a really beautiful post.

I'm assuming that you've already started large -- like 20 gal. plastic container large -- memory boxes. One for each boy.

So sweet, thanks for sharing. Don't they just make you melt at times like that? Priceless.

Yep. They can be so frustrating, then turn around and make it all worth the trouble and more. Precious gifts from your sons!

Thank you Craig.

You bet Paul; the garage is already being filled. I just checked and I also have about 100 gigs of pictures and video in their folder on my computer (which, each 6 months I make into a dvd) :-).

Guy "Don't they just make you melt at times like that? "

Indeed. They are experts in the field.

Java "They can be so frustrating, then turn around and make it all worth the trouble and more."

They should just pin such creations of theirs to their back and they could get away with anything.
