The Gender Role Stereotypes Are Firmly In Place

My wife told me that the kids were sitting at the Christmas tree the other day and pretending to open presents. Joshua "opened" one and excitedly exclaimed, "An iPod! I've been wanting one of these for so many years!" Ari then reached for her imaginary gift and feigned similar excitement. "Oh my goodness! A real live baby! Just what I've always wanted!"

Ha, yep, very typical and very cute (although as a female, I would want both the ipod and the baby.....and the baby would never grow up to be a teen, it would stay sweet and wonderful forever)
