Don’t do the third one!..

I do what Linc does: whistle:.. do it behind her back, then claim ignorance. This works with more than just rc too...

A lot of us have already lived through just that situation. We have 8 kids and two grandkids, and even though we do our best to make sure that everyone is taken care of we have to do things for ourselves to. Otherwise you grow old and bitter, because no one will do for you the way you do for them. That is just the nature of being a parent. We love all of our kids very much, but there are still things that my wife and I desire in our lives as well. When you have one child that child tends to be spoiled, but when you have more then one things change drastically. You learn quickly that you have to save some things for you and the wife, together and individually. I have my R/C addiction now, and the wife has her own fine silver jewelry business(Silpada). So everyone gets a piece of the pie. No regrets.
