My wife pointed out to me last night that I use the same excuse for many, many things in my life.
For example: Her: "The house is a wreck." Me: "We have four kids!" Her: "We need to go out on more dates." Me: "We have four kids!" Her: "Oh, no. We're late to church again!" Me: "We have four kids!" Her: "We still haven't sent (insert any family member's name here) a birthday gift yet!" Me: "We have four kids!" Her: "Our bank account is precipitously low." Me: "We have four kids!" Her: "Wake up! We just fell asleep through the second episode of 24!" (true story, by the way) Me: "We have four kids!" Her: "I ran out of flour!" Me: "We have four kids!" I remember the comedian Jim Gaffigan describing what it was like to have four kids, and he said something like, "It's like you're drowning and someone hands you a baby." Truer words have never been spoken (if, in fact, they were. Go ahead and google it - I don't have time. CUE: We have four kids!)
