Another day at work

We all know the responsibilities that go with being adults. Much of the time this includes doing things we don't really want to do. There is the working, cleaning, cooking, driving places, and the much hated paying bills. It seems as though every day brings more responsibilities into a persons life (that has held true in the Moody house).

One thing we rarely think about is the parallels to a babies life. Using Jason as an example.....here goes................

Numbing those gums.
First for work. Every day he learns new things. It is his job to make work for me. He dirties diapers, has to try to say new words, and is always working on new mannerisms. We can't forget working on cutting teeth.....that is a big one that Jason would be angry if it didn't make the list.

A little experiement....Hypothesis: noodles wont stay on a fork............You can find the results in a paper, to be published at a later date.
Second is cleaning. Without him we wouldn't have much. He does help wipe down the table from time to time, but his super chore is making things dirty.

Third is driving. Unlike us, his car stays inside. Though it does need regular tune ups which is does with none other than a hanger and his foot. He even wrecks it from time to time and always seems to recover quickly.


Making repairs after a big wreck. This lesson: using the foot wrench.
The last but not least is the fourth on the list, Paying bills. For those of you with kids you know that the bills are amazing. You have the necessities along with toys. If you are lucky enough to have a wonderful eater, like Jason, you will be feeding him or her as much as you eat. $$$$$$$$.....don't we wish we saw more of those coming in than going out.

So, as you see kids have it rough too. Jason especially has a tough time of it as you can see. Oh aren't we so glad that we aren't kids anymore.............just too much to deal with for this chic's liking.
