No big deal...

Since I have to do all the yardwork, cooking, cleaning, childcare, husbandcare, on-demand driving, errand runner jobs, I've been too busy to deal with day-to-day details. I told hubby that as soon as he's ambulatory, he gets to go back to helping. He thinks this is funny.

I'm too busy to play the caring and patient mommy for all the little things in my boy's life, so daddy has temporarily stepped in. Genius wanted to zip up his jacket by himself this evening, so daddy patiently showed him how. I listened to the tail-end of their discussion.

Daddy: And then you pull up the zipper....

Genuis: Like this? zzzzziiipppppp! (and he didn't catch any skin, thank GOD.)

Daddy: Very good! You did that all by yourself!

Genius (looking down) : Oh, it wasn't any big deal.

I still can't believe he said that.
