A small problem with an all male household

Before we had kids, I must confess I was really hoping for a boy. I had taught Junior High for a number of years and really just didn't want to be dealing with a couple of teenage girls while going through menopause myself. I didn't think I would have the strength.

I got what I wanted, two little boys, and 99.99% of the time am utterly delighted, captivated and thrilled with my three men. It's testosterone city around here and I couldn't be happier.

However, what I did not figure in was that at some point they may all get sick together.

Right now we have more w(h)ine than all the restaurants in France.

At least I'm not menopausal. I'm just gonna need a lot of that Halloween chocolate.
