5. It's easier to put your kids in daycare from 7:30 - 5:30 than be a stay-at-home mom

My wife is one and our 2 year old can run you ragged in a couple hours..Now do that every day

Women at my work actually think of work as a break from the kids...Last birthday party we went to all the women who worked and used daycare told my wife "I don't know how you do it"


Of course, On June 1st my wife broke her kneecap so I've been working from home/taking care of daughter/cooking/cleaning/delivering meals to wife in bed/all shopping/yard work and trying to build a new fence when we get an hour here and there with a little girl putting rocks back in each hole I dig

We don't really have anyone to help out. My friend did come over with his boys last night so we could go out for an anniversary dinner for two hours.
