Seriously, we have been living like real pioneers over here. Washing our dishes with our own bare hands - meal after meal after meal. Day in and day out. But those days are over. The Guys just deposited a lovely new dishwasher right in our living room. She is beautiful.

Yesterday, Aunt Ellen came over and before I blinked she was at the sink washing dishes. She grew up washing dishes so she knows the art. Sadly, in the last month of dishwasher-lessness, we did not rediscover the art. All our dishes have a greasy film over them. Like when they came out of the old dishwasher. That leaked and soggi-fied the subfloor.

(Did I trick you a little bit? Did you think I was holding out on you about a pregnancy? Discuss.).

I am surprised your kids didn't thumb their noses at it and assume their positions at the sink. Last I heard, they LOVED helping Mom wash dishes! Or was that just on day 1?

Ahhhh, I dream for the day when we have a dishwasher and we can spare our hands from the dryness and the cracking skin......And, you did peak my interest with your title. I was hoping that it would be what I thought it was because you have the cutest kids!
