How to Raise a Boy

Today right out of the blue Joey said, "I should have come with an instruction manual." He then proceeded to tell us what the manual would say. His list went something like this:
"Step 1: Go to the doctor. Go like this, "(grunting, pushing birth sounds)"
Step 2: Feed it.
Step 3: Teach it to use the computer.
Step 4: Teach it to play video games.
Step 5: Take him to school (at this point said boy becomes "he" instead of "it").
Step 6: Teach him to play tractors.
Step 7: Get him a drivers' license.
Step 8: Change his diaper."
This instruction manual went on to Step 20, but, sadly, I forgot the rest. I hope we can manage to finish raising this boy without the rest of the instructions.

Those instructions sound pretty accurate to me!! Tell Joey I'd like a manual for Andrew too.
