So, I was extremely tried of my husband saying that I have it easy because I'm a stay at home mom. We have 2 daughters. 3 dogs two being puppy's and a cat and a bunny. Well last week we decided to switch rolls. He took a week paid vacation because he had to use it before the year is up and he isn't allowed to take Christmas week or thanksgiving week off. Well anyways. I ended up volunteering at a food bank for the week so I was gone 8am- 4pm which his hours are normally 9am-5pm. He had to do all the getting up, all the mornings and nights. By the time I got home the first night. The house wasn't clean, dishes piled up, dog poop and pee on the floor, cats bowl empty, bunnys bowls are empty as well as her water thing. No dinner made. He's tried all he wanted to do is take a nap. The second day. He's a mess. He finally cracked the 3rd day and finally apologized to me. He has agreed to help me more. He even got up last night when the girls where hungry, changed them, and even spent the morning with them till he had to go to work. Safe to say we worked things out and we have come to a compromise about him helping around the house a little bit. Rather it's just doing the dishes or even starting the laundry or even getting up once or twice a week at night. And honestly Monday and today have probably been two of the smoothest days I'v had in a while.😭 also, no judgment. In MY (not anyone else's) marriage I expect hubby to help me with the house, kids and pets. But I'm happy and I hope he will continue with his help even if it's just the small chores.
