I can't take the PRESSURE!
Okay, so Francesca decides she's gonna write a bunch of really exaggeratedly sweet things about me for all the world to see. Now, all of a sudden, I feel this tremendous pressure to live up to the expectations of, not only my wife, but everyone else that knows me. I'm torn. It isn't my nature to just responsibly start washing the dishes every time they need to be washed. But now, every time I see one dirty plate or cup in the sink, World War III erupts inside of me. The responsible, wanting-to-live-up-to-this-great-husband-that-she's-made-me-out-to-be part of me versus the lazy oh-I-worked-all-day-and-am-tired-so-that-should-be-plenty-of-justification-for-not-doing-the-RIGHT-thing part of me. But what the hay! I guess that is part of the maturing process. Learning how to shut the one up and listen to the other. Hey, thanks for reading. Gotta go; I've got some dishes to wash!!!!!

Billy, you are everything I said and more. And you do work hard all day. And you don't have to do the dishes. That is why it is so sweet when you do. I love you.
I was just thinking as I walked passed a sink full of dirty dishes that I should do them and be like Billy. LOL
This is Aaron posting under my wifes blog name. Sorry.
LOL. I should brag on Kevin for a minute...he normally does the dinner dishes while I clean up the table. I do appreciate it. I guess I should write a blog about him. Maybe for Valentine's Day...
Billy- I'm excited about your book and your blog (the beginning chapters?) and I have loved your family forever. I am excited that dirty dishes are no longer your enemy! You are have everything you need to succeed and you are already collecting the interest on the first million!
