Comment on True of mine but he more than made up for it

My wife did basically all the shopping and wrapping.
But i drove across the state christmas eve to pick up the kitten and hid it for hours. And built all the things that needed to be assembled. I was up til about one while she was in bed by 9. Then the stuff that wasnt from santa was built today.
Each parent doesnt need to be involved in everything to still be involved.
hid it for hours
Sounds like pure hell ;)
My wife did the shopping for some of the bigger ticket stuff, I did the stocking stuff (which included some fun toys), I did most of the wrapping but it probably would’ve been more even split if she didn’t have a chronic disease sapping her energy.

Yep, dad here, can confirm and get tired of these tired old jokes. Such a boomer joke

I wrapped for two different families, including mine, this year. My wife works super hard, and this is something I can do to help.

I am in this exact situation. Very little idea what’s under the tree.
