| My and my Dad circa 1979. Love the hair and those plaid pants. |
I realize it's totally late in the day for this but I want to give a quick shout out to Dads since today was Father's Day in the States.
I've learned that it's a great thing that men and women don't always think alike. A few years ago I had an event I really wanted to attend and luckily for me it was right by my husband's office so he offered to take our little boys during his lunch break so I could go. When I returned to the car afterwards, I found my almost-4-yr-old wearing a new outfit:
So he came up with this wardrobe option to get them through the rest of lunch, give me time to finish my thing , and get us back home again. I don't think I would have come-up with it in a thousand years. But it totally worked. Good job, Dad. I'm so glad you're my partner in this crazy adventure called parenthood.
Maybe I can get him to do a guest post tutorial on how to make children's clothes out of take-out bags. Might be a popular one.

ReplyDeleteOh, that is too funny. I never would have thought of doing that either. Hurray for Dad.

ReplyDeleteBahahahaha! That's AWESOME! And the fact that the bag has "Thank You" printed on it is perfect, what a riot!
ReplyDeleteYou may have something there, perhaps you should trademark the idea!
What a creative solution!!! Your husband is a smart man!
ReplyDeleteMine fixed his broken zipper once at work by closing his fly with duct tape! Creative, but very distracting!!!
Oh, my gosh. That is too funny! Pretty clever solution.

Hilarious and clever your hubby!
ReplyDeleteLOL! I got a BIG laugh out of this one. I'm always amazed at how resourceful my hubby can be when I'm not there to "run the show". This is a classic!
ReplyDeleteThat is hilarious! Great picture to capture the moment. He'll have great laughs about it when he gets older (well one of them will, at least).
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh I love that photo of you and your dad. He looks like a happinin kinda guy.
ReplyDeleteThanks for bringing a laugh to my belly this morning. This is very very creative. I give him an A+ for ingenuity.
ReplyDeleteWell, I WOULD call that pee your pants funny ... but that'd be a bit too ironic!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the laugh. ;)
Oh my gosh, Amy, I forgot about this. I just showed our parents and the Bowens and we all laughed to tears. Great story. PS, Dad appreciates the shout out.
