"Oh Brother"

I don't know what it is about brothers, I never did have one, but while raising 4 girls and 2 boys I'm learning that boys love to BUG. At least mine do! Prime example this evening after dinner. I recently checked back on the initial bill for my washing machine to get fixed. It was dated September 14th. Before a month was up, it was leaking and now grinding and still not great. At least it didn't lock shut again with no one to come out for weeks. (P-U!!!) Then, just to make things interesting, my dryer decided to quit working. It has been almost 2 months of drying my clothes by laying them out on the couches in front of the fireplace. Stiff everything. Finally, this morning after hearing that the part for the dryer wouldn't be in for at the very least 3 more weeks, my husband went out and bought another dryer! *tears of joy!* After dinner, I gathered dried clothes into a huge pile and got the kids to help fold. Darren's load came out and I asked Robin to help fold the towels in his basket. She loves this job normally. Darren began to laugh and commented. "Hey Robin, I've rubbed those towels ALL over my body!" She gave him a wilted look as he tripped over himself laughing. I wonder if a boy would have lived very long in our family dominated with three girls...
