The Princess and the Jog

“I may have just filled her sippy cup up with water for me to take on our walk. What? I can’t find my Nalgene.”
-that would be my husband, on his way out the door for his Saturday daddy/daughter walk.
I mean, I could tease him, but it isn’t the worst idea in the world.
Plus, her magenta sippy cup does match perfectly with the new Princess Silly Band he is sporting, after J found it and brought it to our Shabbat dinner last night.
And yes, I did just justify my husband’s use of a sippy cup.
With a matching Silly Band.
If the band fits, you gotta use the sips.
If you’re jogging with a band, you should have a sippy cup in your hand.
OK. So, maybe I can’t make this one work.

But, somehow,
I think my husband will manage to pull it off.
Oh, and from now on, feel free to refer to him as Tiana.
Or, Her Royal Highness, if you nasty.

3 reasons why being married to my husband doesn’t feel like hard labor:

Reason #1:
This morning, I yelled at my husband for using the new, cool, sparkly, blue toothbrush, and leaving me with the red version.
Me: “Don’t you even know was my second favorite color is?!?!?!?”
Husb: “Blue?”
Me: “NO, it is NOT blue. It is aqua.
Husb: “Do you want to switch toothbrushes, then? I’m more than happy to trade.”
Me: “Ew, no. Talk to the hand.”
(or something like that)
Husband: “Do you even know what my second favorite color is?”
Me: “I don’t even care. What? Green?”
Husband: “NO! It is NOT Green. It is Gossamer.”

Reason #2:
Later this morning, I pulled out a new shirt and asked my husband to throw it into the wash.
I don’t know what compelled me to sniff this white, long sleeve t-shirt, but I did, and was promptly amazed.
Me: “OMG! Wanna hear something soo funny?”
Husb: “What’s up?”
Me: “See this shirt? It’s Trish McEvoy #3! The person who tried it on must have been wearing Trish 3#! Not #11. #3. Here. Smell. Isn’t that so funny??!?”
Husb: “You’re kidding!! It’s 3!??! OMG, I was sure it was #6!!”

Reason 3#:
Even later this morning, on our way out the door,
the husband stopped, pivoted, and asked, “Do you have any more silly bandz? One of mine broke.”

Yes, those are just 3 of the reasons why being married to my husband doesn’t feel like hard labor.
He makes me laugh;
Even on Labor Day.

When I named my daughter after a Disney Princess,

I didn’t take this

into consideration.
It can get really bad.

Yes, I am slowly bankrupting myself
one plastic tsotchke at a time.
