Also, love the pics above!!!! I ...Love your post! Also, love the pics above!!!! I work fulltime then come home and work some more. It seems like the job of a mom is never ending. It is one I would not trade for the world though...<br /><br />Sounds like your hubby is a good listener! That's a great quality! My husband and I have had discussions regarding this issue too. I still do most of our "nightly routine" with our son but he knows the more he helps.... the luckier he's gonna get LOL! Amazing how that can do the trick sometimes. I'm kidding.... wait, no i'm not! <br /><br />My sis in law, stays home with her 3 kids and keeps another 2. My brother is a teacher and a coach so he works late some nights with the wrestlers, and when it is wrestling season...my sis in law is quite the trooper all though i've heard her version and side of it too. Being a mom is the hardest toughest job, but the most rewarding. I'm sure if my brother was in her shoes for a week, we'd see a white surrender flag waving outside from a window...hahaha!<br /><br />This should be required reading for all men!

My husband works 12-14 hour night shifts 5-7 days a week. So, he gets home between 6:30 and 7 am and leaves around 5 pm. I feel the resentment but I know his job isn't a ball either. I just wish I could get him to help more because even on his days off he is so exhausted he just falls asleep if he is sitting on the couch too ling (wish I could do that without fear of the kids running rampant ;-).

I actually found a way to elimate a few of them! (kind of) I have a 5 and 2 yr old. My 2 yr old naps everyday afternoon. While he is sleeping, I try to cook dinner and clean the mess. Dinner time, just reheat, serve on paper plates! I also started doing bathtime right after nap around 4pm.Bridgetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12957287305059334172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6073650201646308060.post-86540694663586927022011-02-21T18:27:13.969-08:002011-02-21T18:27:13.969-08:00Oh I know!

We alot of times guard all this resentment until we finally explode.. which is what happened to me one day, I cried hysterically to my husband as I was trying to explain this to him. <br /><br />Ever since then he's been the most awesome husband I could ask for.. He helps more and we both feel more relaxed at the end of the day. It made a world of difference.Rockin' Mommahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17278464759592898595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6073650201646308060.post-89986272448053656162011-02-21T17:55:57.006-08:002011-02-21T17:55:57.006-08:00My hubz had been awesome at sharing the after hour...My hubz had been awesome at sharing the after hours workload, as I call it. It makes a world of difference and takes away that silent resentment that we sometimes harbor. If more dads knew how appreciative their women would be, I'm sure they would help more.mama knows besthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17264248724819026147noreply@blogger.com
