Yes it is sadly true I am the only female, even our cat is a male. So a typical day here. . .
Jack pours Cap'n Crunch Berry into his hands and then proceeds to say "Uh oh I am leaking I need a bowl". So we get the cereal into a bowl and Jack only eats the berries and throws the yellow pieces on the floor. Which I have him sweep up but to him this is not a punishment because he likes to pretend he is the house cleaner and tries to send us all downstairs so he can clean the house.
Colin, the Vomit Comet, spits up on me even though I have a burp clothe he turns his head just at the last second to get my clothes. Colin spits up soo much that I do at least a load of laundry a day. Although I do get to try out several outfits a day and try combinations I wouldn't normally try.
Ryan the big kindergartner use to like to say underwear any chance he got. We have finally got him to stop saying underwear and now he says skunk. He replaces words with skunk. For example, go put that in your skunk instead of go put that in your drawer or Ryan just said "Who wants a Skunk?". He thinks it is hilarious.
Clyde the cat sleeps in all things baby related; the car seat, the bouncy chair, the bassinet and today it is the changing table.
Then there is all the wrestling and then when someone gets hurt they want sympathy. Well I guess they will have to find a nicer mom if they want sympathy. Then there is also the arguing. Ryan says "Today is Halloween!" Jack responds "No! It's not. It is not dark." They go back and forth until I say enough.
My great aunt that had eight boys has a very well developed sense of humor and sees the humor in things. I believe that I will have a good sense of humor before I am done raising boys or else I will be in a mental institution talking to myself. I must go now. Ryan wants to play computer games and Jack wants to put on his Batman costume for the 20th time.

Well, eventually I'm sure your sense of humor will develop nicely. But right now, not being "in the trenches", I was chuckling loudly, and enjoying what I could envision of your day. And, just think, before long, Colin won't be the vomit comet, but will be arguing right along with his bigger brothers! and adding to your sense of humor! Ahh, your boys are very lucky!
