SAHM Stuff
As I was mopping the kitchen floor, grumbling about having to clean up a spill in the fridge (more fridge stuff), trying to teach one child and encourage another to finish breakfast, I started to chuckle to myself about a myth that non-SAHM People have about SAHMs-that we have unlimited amounts of time to do whatever we wish.
I personally find there is never enough time during the day. Of course there would be more if I abandoned blogging, but that will be our secret.
Before we decided to homeschool, we had Rosey Posey in a preschool a few mornings at our local parish (see St. Mary’s). A number of working mothers tried to hire me to watch their children after school. Ha! Like I had the time! When my mother was a SAHM with my brothers, she said she used to get the same offers all the time. Of course now that I do not see other Moms while picking up kids at school, I am not asked anymore (thank goodness). Some would not take a simple “no” for an answer. One tried to say “well don’t you need the extra money?”
