    Why does he need the spaghetti anyway? She made and froze all the meals.
    Lizzie is too big for a bottle now. Bad for her teeth. And he’s a dentist!

    I’m sure there are written instructions somewhere. We Moms know there will be problems.

    She probably made spaghetti sauce and figured John could handle boiling the pasta. Or John could be like my father in law and feel that boiling pasta is too much work, so have the spaghetti sauce on toast.

    Doctortoon - I love your new avatar!

    I did child care for small kids working my way thru college (decades ago!). Even if the parenting chores in a home were declared to be equally shared, not one of the dads ever knew all the particulars of their childrens’ diet, friends, wardrobe, doctor/immunization status, school/teacher issues, like the mom did. Not one. And this was in a big, urban, progressive city. (of course, my experience was anecdotal evidence only….)

    Awww, John feels so helplessness and doesn’t know what to do. Elly should write down the notes to do for him while she was gone for her visit. Tch!

    Doctortoon, your comment is so hilarious! LOLs!
