I might have to get the wife part down in writing to show him when he's 18. Oh, yes - please tuck it away in a journal about DS. What a neat little boy.

Though in 1st grade, I said I wanted to be a "farmer's wife." We have it in writing. So much for the strides made by feminism in the 70s...LOL! Kriston
