Thanks guys, got the neighbor to watch the kids, and me and momma took off to have a dinner WITHOUT kids. It was UNBELIEVEABLY nice to have a meal without having to wolf it down and wrestle a 3 year old while doing it.
I remember those days. I'd come home and be a hero by just providing some adult conversation. Happy Birthday - I'm not alone appreciating your generosity when some competent advice is needed among the V20 brethren.
