Stay At Home Moms - Tips to get your point across

I found this on my Sister Lisa's blog and thought I had to share. Thanks for the tip...

A man came home from work and found his three children outside,
still in theirpyjamas,
playing in the mud,
with empty food boxes and wrappers strewn allaround the front yard.
The door of his wife's car was open,
as was the front door to the house andthere was no sign of the dog.
Proceeding into the entry,
he found an evenbigger mess.
A lamp had been knocked over,
and the throw rug was waddedagainst one wall.
In the front room the TV was loudly blaring a cartoon channel,
and the familyroom was strewn with toys and various items of clothing.
In the kitchen, dishes filled the sink,
breakfast food was spilled on thecounter,
the fridge door was open wide,
dog food was spilled on the floor,
a broken glass lay under the table,
and a small pile of sand wasspread by the back door.
He quickly headed up the stairs,
stepping over toys and more piles of clothes,
looking for his wife.
He was worried she might be ill, or that something serious had happened.
He was met with a small trickle of water as he made his way out the bathroomdoor.
As he peered inside he found wet towels,
scummy soap and more toysstrewn over the floor.
Miles of toilet paper lay in a heap and toothpaste hadbeen smeared over the mirror and walls.
As he rushed to the bedroom,
he found his wife still curled up in the bed in her pyjamas, reading a novel.
She looked up at him, smiled, and asked how his day went.
He looked at her bewildered and asked, "What happened here today?"
She again smiled and answered, "You know every day when you come home from work and you ask me what in the world I do all day?"
"Yes," was his incredulous reply.
She answered, "Well, today I didn't do it."Send this page to another woman.
