I am a stay at home mom as I probably have stated more times than you can count in less than 2 blogs already. I have no problem with the title. I also have no problem with the "job" itself or the responsibility of what the stay at home mom is supposed to do. I have 2 toddlers that are not your average little doll faces. It takes a lot of work to keep them loved,satisfied,occupied,fed,changed,bathed.etc. The list can go on and on. But when you have a chef fiance that is obsessed with having food made every night it gets a little trying after a while. I make sure my kids eat breakfast, lunch and dinner. No matter if its just simple mac and cheese with a side of steamed broccoli and a cup of apple juice for lunch and chicken tenders with french fries for dinner.
That's what my mom fed me and I turned out just fine.
My relationship is falling apart before my very eyes not solely because of food but in my psyche of annoyances because of food. He would rather me make jello from scratch than by the darn already made packs, I sound silly I know.
Call me a spoiled American but I have no problem making it. Its just that when the husbands,boyfriends,fiances give the kids a kiss good bye and head off for there long day of work they don't see the chaos and mayhem that ensues behind the scenes.
It would just be easier if you bought good ole' J-E-L-L-O. It would make my stay at home motherhood just a teeny teeny bit easier.
So my question is, "Do you think that your husband has any sort of grasp on what it is like to be home 24 hours a day with the kids?, and if so do you think they will ever understand?"
