I wouldn't be to hard on the wife. That sounds like something I would do these days. I am so scatter brained anymore.
Look out, Smallsteps will be grown and ready to leave the nest just like mine before you know it. Enjoy these times.
You two sound like the wife and I when it comes to window shopping. When I used to get out more, I loved going to stores and walking around. Especially hardware stores and such. She has to buy something or she doesn't see the use in going.
I am not too hard on her, but I tease her too much about a lot of things :)
I am not looking forward to Smallsteps leaving home, but I am looking forward to seeing what she will do with her life once she does.
Yes! All those tools I would never actually use more than once, but like to pretend I might buy one :)
Teasing is good, it doesn't give them too much control. haha
Yes, I am enjoying watching my oldest achieve good things and looking forward to the youngest spread his wings as well.
