...Just a silly random thought...
It is one of the hardest things to do as a parent. Yes, that's right, putting on a pair of jeans on a reluctant and squirming little boy. For some reason, tonight, I thought of Robert Frost's cliche poem, "The Road Not Taken." I am paraphrasing, but imagine reciting it as you go through the process of navigating the "fork" in a pair of jeans:
"Two roads diverged in a sylvan wood..." (refering, of course, to that critical "fork" at the groin...)
"...And I" (meaning the "second leg") "I took the path less traveled by
and that has made all the difference." (because- imagine- if the second leg followed the first... you get something that happens far too often, Aiden's stumbling and boyish laughter...)
