Being a man…

Being a man…

I’ll just come right out and say it… sometimes I wish I had a penis sticking out between my legs! It seems to me that life would be so much simpler with a tool like that.

Yes, men have responsibilities, but we can all agree they’re never as many as a woman’s. Here, my husband works a lot—I’ll admit that. But once he gets home, it’s as if the world stops. Why is it that I, the mom of the house, never have five minutes to just veg out on the couch like my husband knows so well how to do? Why am I always running around the house? Why don’t I get even two little minutes to myself? At worst, in the bathroom… well, no, never alone: “Come on, Mom, go pee!” He, on the other hand, can spend 25 minutes in the bathroom without anyone caring what’s going on behind those four walls. My God, how I’d love that…

I don’t know about you ladies, but around here, I’m the mom of the house, and I’m constantly checking the time. If I weren’t there to make sure it’s time to feed or bathe our kids, I think they’d starve to death or never be potty-trained! Okay, I’m exaggerating… but honestly, when I look at my husband sitting on the couch chatting with my daughter while holding the baby, being a dad just looks so easy. Not that being a mom is hard, but let’s face it… we’re never idle!

Don’t get me wrong, I love being a mom, but sometimes all I ask for is a tiny 5 minutes with a penis between my legs.
