An E-Mail from my daughter:
A Thought For Christmas
Do you know what would have happened
If it had been Three Wise Women
Instead of Three Wise Men?
They would have asked directions,
Arrived on time,
Helped deliver the baby,
Cleaned the stable,
Made a casserole,
Brought practical gifts and
There would be Peace On Earth.
-Seen it all, done it all, can't remember most of it-
Frenchy,
We'll never live down the "asking for directions" thing, will we. It was Moses' fault I tells ya!

Well.........
It takes a brave man to post that saying - and/or a proud father.
Whatever - pretty much the truth. Rather like Steel Magnolias movie? I guess women just like to "keep busy". Men like to sit on such occasions - together.
Mary would probably have been happy to have another woman to discuss "the birth" with also. Women like to do that too. And being a new mom, "what the heck am I supposed to do now?
The casserole? Carmel's famous Camel & dumplings - reheatable on an open fire. No one understands the "no directions" man thing.

Yep, there's nothing like a discussion about good old "back labor" to get women to bond.
I heard another good one. Seems that this guy was feeling sorry for himself and thinking that his wife had a much better role in life than he. So one night he prayed real hard for God to reverse the roles so that HE could be the wife for a change and stay home while his spouse, now the husband, would have out into the world and work so that she would know just how difficult of a time he had of it.
Sure enough, the next morning he's the woman. Well as you girls can imagine after he made breakfast for all the kids, saw them off to school, did the breakfast dishes, made the beds, vacuumed the carpets, did the laundry, paid the bills, called the repair man for the refrigerator that was on the blink, worked in the flower bed, fixed dinner he was exhausted by bedtime. Of course once in bed there was one more chore to perform and with that done he began to pray real hard again:
"Please, God, I made a mistake, please reverse the roles again."
The voice came back:
"Certainly, my son but you will have to wait a while before that can be done."
"Wait a while? How long?" Asked the anxious man.
"Nine months. You just got pregnant."

Frenchy!!!!!
My Man! You're so in touch with your feminine side......
Loooooved the joke - guy at the next desk just looked at me funny when I laughed out loud.
Btw, COMF at H20 became quite defensive when I referred to a wife being "kind" to her husband, even in light of the husband being very helpful to his wife.
I just shudder to think what he would have come back at me with if I had referred to "one more chore to be done."
