Chores (Photo credit: ShardsOfBlue)
This week my husband walks in the door after a long day at work to find: dishes piled in the sink, laundry all over the living room, the beef for dinner still in a frozen block, and me…looking like Frump Queen. He is gracious. And tells me to take a nap. I instantly obey. (Inwardly rejoicing.) And while I am sleeping for 45 minutes, he manages to clean the whole house…while watching our daughter. (A feat I clearly was incapable of accomplishing today. Many days.)
Ladies, read the rest, here!

Beautiful…and it’s the same lesson I learned when my oldest was just tiny, and I started wondering if I was wasting my life and talents… Oh what a painful, glorious lesson!
Painful. Yet glorious. Yes. And difficult to retain.
