Ok Lauren this one is for you.....
I was thinking today as Patrick showed me yet another pair of his pants with a hole in the crotch, that I may have to bite the bullet and start clothing the third child in my family. I just dont understand why some men have such a hard time with the survival basic of, clothe thyself! He will probably kill me when he reads this, but do you know that his mother still buys his underwear (she only visited 2 times in 5 years we were in BC). Yes sad, but true. One time we were shopping together and she wanted us to buy him underwear, when i said, he is a big boy, he can get his own, oh boy did i get ....the look....of death! The way i figure it is that if he wants to wear underwear that is falling apart that is no ones business but his own. Now that his pants are suffering the same fate, i must jump in and save our family reputation. I dont want to be know as that ratty family down the street.

I started taking Dale shoppping eons ago - because even if I thought he might actually go buy his own clothes when he needed them (which he wouldn't) I would REALLY REALLY hate to see what kind of stuff he might come home with! He hates spending money on anything...let alone clothes, so I decided it's just easier this way. I do, however, refuse to go shopping for his clothes without him. At least you're in Ottawa now where you have easily accessible shopping opportunities as opposed to Comox!
So eloquently written. Thank you!
That was so long ago... where's the next one??
