Husbands!!!! Don't get it...Vent!

do you have your own kids? I"m thinking not because usually they at least get how "challenging" a couple of hours with 1 or 2 can be and therefore can imagine more kids for 10 hour days. Yikes. How disappointing to be so misunderstood. Really, you can't have your own kids...I just don't understand.
Totally book an appointment at a time when the only solution is to have him cover for you. Even like just the last half hour to close up or something. He'll get it pretty quick.

do you have your own kids?

My husband is a great provider for our family and takes care of the outside and repairs but wouldn't know my daughter bath or bed time routine. He's only had to bathe her about 3-4 times and thats with me coming in to finsh her off. If I go shopping (ie Walmart) after 1hr I'm alredy getting a message "where are you..." Yeah. Love him but kids DO NOT change everyone. I'm in it alone. My guy has said the same thing....and it kills me that he thinks I don't "work" yet he can't stay 1hr with his OWN kid without loosing his paitence.

He was home for a few days last month and I asked him to watch the kids for 20min while I went to pick something up. I'm talking about 2 3yr olds and a 5ys old nd he was paniked!! Really?? Those are the EASY ones!!

It's taken a while to build up my thick-skin but I just don't listen or just don't DO IT. When he complains about it being cluttered around the house....I will clean it but will be too TIRED for anything "special for him" for another week. He gets the hint. Help me or get NOTHING! Dummys they are!
