Just What We All Needed

The other day was a very long day. Tristan was just being a three-year-old and it wore me down. By the time Neil got home from work, Tristan was headed into the bath. Neil and I were trying to figure out our weekend schedule with the kids since we both had to work. It was getting a little frustrating especially at the end of a rather difficult day. Somewhere in the middle of the tension, Tristan mentioned that we should all get in the tub. Dismissively, I turned and said, "Tristan, we are NOT getting in the...," but didn't get to finish that sentence. Neil was walking past me and climbed into the tub clothes and all! Tristan was in shock. For about a minute all he could say was, "Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh!"
He defused the situation for sure and had us all laughing really hard. Good dad, good husband!"
