This One's Dedicated To My Mother-In-Law

Because only she really knows what it's like to try to motivate Jeff Watts to go shopping for new clothes, and then to go along on such a shopping trip. She's lived through it, and for that reason she deserves our respect. Fortunately (or unfortunately, depending on how you look at it), it doesn't happen very often. But today, with the big kids visiting their aunt, uncle and cousins, I convinced him it would be a good time to go. And I have to give the boy his props. He went with a good attitude. He was willing to try things on. And he didn't complain about how much money he was spending. It was actually even sort of fun. And Jeff now has a new wardrobe--from shorts and swimsuits to sports coats--that should carry him handsomely through the next five years or so.
