There are three little words that every mother wants to hear from her husband:
"I'll change it!"
Tonight, I heard those precious words.
I walked over to my son and smelled something. I immediately said, "Whew! You STINK! How 'bout we change your diaper??"
And then it happened.
My husband enthusiastically exclaimed, "I'll change it!"
I was astonished. I couldn't believe my ears! My heart leapt with joy!
'How SWEET!' I thought. 'I'll go ahead and change him, but how considerate of him to offer to put down his Xbox controller to change his son's dirty diaper!!'
My husband continued to talk. Only this time it didn't make any sense. And then, it hit me. He was talking on his Xbox headset to one of his friends. Apparently, he had been talking to this friend the whole time. The fact that he had said those wonderful three words was pure coincidence. He hadn't heard what I had said at all.
My heart sank. But, I had to laugh! Boys! *shakes head*
P.S. For fear that this posting should shine an awful light on my beloved: he made me a fried egg sandwich tonight and took out the trash! All before this occurred :)
That is really funny. I was so impressed because I remember when I was over there the other night and we needed R to do something and I had to bribe him by changing K's diaper! lol!
