Why my daughter-in-law will thank me....

So, after spending the day with Alex - I realized my daughter-in-law will thank me greatly. He's been raised (as Sarah likes to say by 2 females) - so he's learned all sorths of things that will be appreciated when he's an adult.

Things like:
  1. He never leaves the toilet seat up.
  2. He knows where his socks belong (in the laundry basket).
  3. He likes to help in the kitchen cooking.
  4. He knows how to do dishes.
  5. He knows it's his job to take out the trash.
  6. And, today, he learned how to do laundry, including how to sort laundry, start the washer, switch clothes into the dryer, even clean out the lint catcher (which he was thoroughly disgusted by). He's known how to fold laundry for a while.
Of course, being a single mom - he also has to help me around the house. He knows how to change light bulbs, use screw drivers, hammers, and plungers.

So, yeah - in about 20 years I'll be ready to let him get married (so I can move in with him and let him take care of me)!
