    I don't really have sympothy for these people! I to this day no matter where I'm going have in the diaper bag 4+diapers, full case of wipes, a change of clothes, drink & snack and if summer hat and bathing suit....fall winter a sweater/jacket. On weekends where I know we're getting home late add a pajama to the list and that's my AVERAGE bag for MY daughter....so really? they have NO EXCUSE!

    I too was a working out of the house mom at 25yrs old who had NO help from my DH...I love him but he doesn't do anything re: DD - I'm a "single parent" with that regard. He doesn't do cooking, housework, laundry, baths, diaper changes.....MAYBE he'd feed her 'for me') I'd get home at 6pm and start dinner while playing with DD, ate and then gave her a bath + cuddle time. Once she was down I'd clean up the kitchen, make lunches and get her bag ready for daycare (bottles, 2 outfits etc.) maybe do a chore or two and finally sit down enough for a 30min show on the couch and bed!!! It CAN be done!!

    (but it's also the reason I wanted to leave it .....)

    wow you are organized! Alas I used to be one of the parent who would forget. I mean I would get home 7 and hope that dinner was ready to eat then I had to make sure that the girls at least had a bath and then off to bed. Almost always I would get a call asking for extra clothes. I'll be honest every night I reached home all I wanted to do was to go to bed. I was exhausted. I was disorganized and overworked! no wonder I left! I guess organization is key to be able to have things ready for the kids. Good point.
