Packing two boys for summer camp.
Me, at Walmart buying supplies this morning: "Ok, here is bug repellent, little tubes of toothpaste, body wash, and new underwear for both of you. What else do you need?"
Secondo: "I don't need underwear!! I have plenty of underwear!! Put that back, I don't want it."
Terzo: "Nothing. There is absolutely nothing else that I need."
[insert work on the barn, backyard wedding, blueberry washing, and laundry here]
Me, 7 pm: "Are you all packed? Where are the rest of your socks? Four pairs isn't enough."
Terzo: "That's all I have! It's enough for a week though. Plus I told you that I was out of socks. Remember, when I was in school and it was time for the play, I told you I needed more socks?"
Me: [don't trust myself to say anything, head out for socks]
[insert more laundry, more blueberry washing, and cleaning the rabbit's basement pen here]
Me, 9 pm: "OK, that should be it apart from the new socks in the dryer. Do you have everything packed?"
Secondo: "Well, I can't find enough pairs of underwear..."
