kid-style cry for help?
my girl has the cutest habit of using magnetized letters to leave notes for our son. she also does the vast majority of the work to keep the house running smoothly, especially lately since work has been so crazy.
the other morning jaden and i decided to have oatmeal for breakfast and what better to keep him interested in it than some raisins to search for and eat. luckily jaden was able to find the very last tiny box of raisins hidden in the way back of the cupboard.
we've really stopped using the grocery list on the fridge so i decided to use the magnet letters to request more raisins from the next trip to the grocery store. this got a bit of a laugh from the wife but more importantly, i think it got a response the next morning as well...
now, there is a little history behind this one. now and then my girl will essentially say "enough, i need some help around the house." most recently i started to sweep the floors 2-3 times a week. she loved it. well, work got crazy and i really just stopped doing it.
so now, i think my request for raisins from the store was granted - the very next day no less - and might have prompted a subtle but effective cry for help - with the floors...

Actually, I do believe the raisins were delivered the day I received the P.O. on the door. Details, details. I am definitely interested in some help, though I more than understand the reasons why dog hair is piled up all over the halls and in frightening proportions under our couches and beds. Love, YJ
