Mr. Mom
My hat is off to those who care for children fulltime. Eleanor had some minor surgery about two weeks ago so I got to do what she does on a dily basis. It was very hard. That wasn’t a surprise to me, but experiencing something always makes it more real.
I love and enjoy my kids, but just figuring out what to do to keep the kids busy without resorting to watching TV or videos was tough. Then trying to get any of the housework done at the same time was next to impossible. And I was fried at the end of the day.
All you moms or dads or others who are primary caregivers for children, I salute you!

Before I had children I vowed that they would never watch more then 30 min. per day….than I had a baby and realized that If I was going to get anything done “Thomas the Train” had to be on sometimes. I do however hear that if you have more then one they entertain each other.
