Excitement levels are high in our house right now because in just a couple days Julianne and Jacob will be here. Sonya too. Part of the breakfast conversation this morning went like this:
Jack: Guess who my favorite cousin is?
Vic: Adeline?
Jack: NO!! Not Adeline! She’s a girl.
Vic: Then I’m gonna guess…
Jack: It’s Jacob! Jacob! Know why? Because we both have lots of Legos.
He’s easy.
We told Katie and Jack that they need to clean their bedrooms and playroom today so their cousins can come over next week. Big groans all around. They’re not embarrassed by the mess. But Vic and I are, especially because last year when Jacob came over he said, “I don’t mean to be rude, but this is the messiest house I’ve ever seen.”
I will not be surprised if Jacob gets a job as host of one of those shows like Clean Sweep or Mission: Organization. He won’t be the guy who decides what needs to be done, or the one that does any of the work. He’ll just be the one that points out how terrible it all looks in the “before” pictures.
