Duchess Ponders Her Future

With Princess at camp (OMG they haven't called me yet, she just might make it), Duchess has had plenty of mommy/daddy time. Woohoo! We've had ice-cream dates and tickle-fest but the best is the three of us riding around in daddy's single cab truck.

What a cute view.....(note that The Man's porn mustache is gone now though, he finally shaved!!!! I had to buy him a new scope but it was totally worth it!)


So we're driving along....when Duchess ponders this:
I don't want a husband!
The Man is quite happy with this idea and praises her decision.
After college she would like to own a house with lots of flowers and two dogs. Then she sat thinking and wanted to know who would mow her yard though if she didn't get married....(notice the automatic delegation of man duties...I'm raising her right!).????
The Man volunteered stating that this was an easy trade off. Promised that her flowers and yard would be the best in the town.
That made her quite happy and they discussed this for some time. Then she wanted to know who would clean her toliets (notice the automatic disqualification of woman duties....yet again, I'm doing a great job) ?
The Man promptly said your mom can come over and do them for you....since you'll be working and traveling all over the world curing people....since you'll be a brain doctor..... (notice that we aim high)
Duchess thought about that and realized that no, mom couldn't do that....cause she'll be babysitting my daughters....... (here is where The Man almost ran us off the road)
Turns out that with no man, no husband, no marriage....Duchess will have all her dreams come true, including two daughters......oh and a pink dump truck that daddy will wash once a week and a dirt bike, but back to the illegitimate kids......
The Man ponders this and then looks at me and sternly says, she's adopting.
Heaven help this man when puberty gets here. Maybe that is why he is collecting guns.....
