That's me! I'm like, "Honey, CHECK OUT the tub! So white it'll blind ya!", LOL. And he pats my back with a mixture of sincere appreciation along with a tad bit of eye-rolling. Sense of humor is everything if you're a homemaker. You have to find some way to laugh when you spend all afternoon cleaning floors only to have a kid drag cat poop in.
I have no doubt that this is what I was called to do with my life. I am content and feel blessed that I have a fabulous husband who is in this 100% with me. I'm not going to lie though, it sucks beyond words sometimes that my children's friends who have two income households get to go to Disney, drive nice cars, live in big houses and stuff like that. But we've chosen what's best for
our family and all choices have consequences (at least that's what I tell my kids

).
My vote for the list is that you sit down with your morning coffee with your new cookbook instead of the paper.
Oh, and because you're home during the day, you're on a first name basis with the mailman, UPS guy and the Schwan's man.
