The funniest thing JUST happened. Stephen woke up this morning with a burning desire to finish his half of the thank you cards. I had a burning desire to blog about our sleepover with the kids yesterday! So we were both doing such and he starts complaining about a hand cramp so he takes a break for a while then he says, “okay I’m gonna get to it!” And I say, “mm back to thank you cards” and he says “oh…no I was going to get ready to go to the gym..” and I say “get back to it mr.!” HAHA I have never seen him not want to do something as much as he doesn’t want to be writing these thank you cards right now. All of the sudden he stands up and with a very sarcastic tone says, “I’m sure glad I don’t have to write thank you cards for my Christmas presents. You know the only time we have to do this is for like weddings and showers and stuff. Who came up with that idea? What ever happened to just a simple thank you? We already sent them an invitation to come share with us our special day! They should be thanking us! If anything we should send them a ‘You’re Welcome’ card.” Meanwhile I’m just rollin with it. We’re totally not being serious he was just complaining so I’m agreeing with him you know… feeding off each other. All the sudden he stops and is waiting for a response from me and I say, “But… you still have to write them… though…” He squints his eyes with the look of the deepest disappointment... sits down in a pout to keep writing and says, “I thought you were on my side!!!”
I take it when he paused awaiting my response he was hoping for me to give him permission to quit or for me to agree and feel bad for him and offer to do them for him. Needless to say he was crushed with I had no sympathy for him. All along he was just trying to get out of it.
I laughed for 5 minutes straight. With tears. Maybe you had to be there :)
I love you Stephen.
