The Gift

I know you wanted a daughter. But household toys? Seriously!”, she asked feeling frustrated.
He smiled and continued to gift wrap. Tomorrow was their son’s third birthday.
“These are girls toys!!!”
“Ok, What are boys toys?” he asked.
“Well, cars, dinosaurs, drums…”, she said.
“You think I am a girl?” He asked.
“What?”
“Well, I love cooking, laundry and gardening more than you do. Does that make me any less of a man?” he asked.
“You are the best”
“Let’s not discriminate or bifurcate please “, he smiled.
She hugged him tight. There is a reason she married him!

  1. Glad they worked that out! There are no boy toys and girl toys just kids toys. Unless they're sex toys and then they're not for kids.

  2. Happy children and parents with toys, especially the man - just stroke his ego.
