...I totally agree with you, Tammy! It is hard work.<br />Sometimes we are "lucky" to drop the little ones off. But it is not something that I prefer!<br />When I sometimes stay at home with Mieka when she is sick, I see that the day go by way too quickly, and that it feels that I have done "nothing".<br />I envey you SAHM. ;-)MomAgain@40http://momagain40.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3410985627936537274.post-69246265713744593662010-11-05T09:57:00.992+02:002010-11-05T09:57:00.992+02:00We have the same sort of thing in our house, and I...We have the same sort of thing in our house, and I'm a stay-at-home mom! The deal is that my working day starts when his does, and ends when his does, and anything that happens before and after those hours is split between us. So I give baby his dinner, husband baths him while I make a bottle and start our dinner, husband puts him to bed while I finish cooking. Husband washes dishes, I pack them away in the morning etc. <br /><br />It's bloody hard work being at home and subject to the moods and demands of a little person all day long, I often envy working moms!!Tammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05203302927029646740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3410985627936537274.post-17538000000334261682010-11-05T02:53:42.168+02:002010-11-05T02:53:42.168+02:00Same over here.

I cook; he cleans; he packs the dishwasher; I do the laundry; he is the fun loving spirit having tons of fun playing hide and seek with the kids; where I am more the nurturing spirit who teaches them right from wrong. I think we are the ying and yang and together we are a formidable team! We need both and our kids need both of us!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3410985627936537274.post-5142759774294416162010-11-04T21:58:04.888+02:002010-11-04T21:58:04.888+02:00I know what you mean, GratefulTwinMom ;-)I know what you mean, GratefulTwinMom ;-)Karen du Toithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17962536496240863886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3410985627936537274.post-7598839079809393162010-11-04T15:48:51.820+02:002010-11-04T15:48:51.820+02:00We both play to our strengths.
