Jess is funny

I have come to learn that marriage is all about compromises. Here is the conversation that led to this picture.

Jess: Lance lets learn sign language for the baby. Sister Johnson is teaching a class at church.
Lance: Thats not going to happen.
Jess: Ah come on it will be fun!
Lance: Fun for who?
Jess: Dang it.....PLEASE!!!!

This is where the negociating begins.

Jess: I will make you cookies?
Lance: You just finished making cookies.
Jess: Yeah but I will give them ALL to you.
Lance: I already had like 4, I think I am good
Lance: I will however learn some sign language if you let me draw a mustache on you.
Jess: What? No way
Lance: Final offer
Jess: Fine

End of negociations-A win win situation. That is what marriage is all about.

I'm sure the baby will appreciate your new skills--and the hairy lip.

Yea so I remember this agreement, but not the part where he could put a picture of it for everyone to see.

Jess: you are positively glowing
Lance: you are not so much. But I guess it feels good to finally have payback for the time she put makeup on you.

Let's just call it even-stevens. It would be nice for the baby to be born during a cease-fire.

oh yea! I remember when you put makeup on Lance! Good call, Laquina. I love this conversation and I love the pic even more! I am also glad that Phil does not know how to post on our blog and cannot post incriminating pics of me!

Ok, you win the best blog post award with that dialogue and picture. That little baby girl better have a sense of humor because her parents ARE NUTS (and by the way, two of my favorite people.)

lols! That is quite the compromise. Definitely not where i thought that convo was going. Congrats on the little girl, by the way!
