I don't know what to make of it.

It would give me a new appreciation for all my wonderful wife does. Just found your blog and love it. Keep up the great post. I should probably do this for a while.

In true AWSC style, as well. <br/><br/>I've watched both my brothers and my take on the work-full-time-while-mommy-stays-at-home deal. And they both definitely realize how much work it is to take care of the kiddos for most of the day. Both my brothers are fantastic dads and they have set the bar pretty high for me when it comes to marriage and parenting. I've also seen them make some pretty goofy mistakes, but obviously that comes with the territory! It makes me look forward to that part of life, most definitely. What a lovely post!

In that he has always recognized just how big a job raising kids is. Being with them every minute of the day. <br/><br/>I think our guys are few and far in between.
