Men and Women and Babies


Babies cry, right? We all know this. We all agree with this.
If you are a woman you know that a baby will cry for a multitude of reasons. The baby can be hungry. Or sleepy. The baby can need burped, can have a stomach ache, maybe the baby is bored and wants bounced. The baby can need a diaper change. The baby can need to sit up or lie down. The baby crying is step one in communicating with the baby.

If you are a man and you hear a baby cry.... The baby is hungry.

I can't count the number of times I've been taking a shower or watering my flowers or doing my hair and Ken will come in with a screaming Kole- "He's hungry." I inform Ken that I just fed him 20 minutes ago. "Well he's been crying so I think he is hungry."

To men....
Crying=Hungry.

To women
Crying= Break is over.

Oy vey. It's funny that it bothers Ken to hear the baby cry. Every other man I know has some weird ability to tune out crying - baby crying OR kid crying.

Aren't we glad men and women are different or some babies would be eating ALL day long!
