I told my husband the other day I think I married the wrong man. He asked why, and I said, "I was meant to have a maid." Nothing is better than a supportive partner, and mine is carrying more than his share right now!Julie Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07589664736180812241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-628506312179219744.post-4410291510031486342010-01-25T12:19:06.533-05:002010-01-25T12:19:06.533-05:00In the long run, I don't think anything is mor...In the long run, I don't think anything is more difficult--or more important--than motherhood (or parenthood in general). The things you described are only part of it, and that's why it's so tough--parents are responsible for not only the physical needs of their children, but the emotional and mental needs as well. No one can expect to be a perfect parent, and you definitely can't expect to receive any medals for devoting 20 or 30 years of your life to the job, but in the end I think raising children will probably be the most important thing most people ever do.mkgshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10032027328606342071noreply@blogger.com
