What do you do all day??

My cute friend sent this to me and I thought all of you moms would put a smile on your face :)

What Do You Do All Day?

A man came home from work and found his three children outside,still in their pajamas, playing in the mud, with empty food boxes andwrappers strewn all around the front yard.The door of his wife's car was open, as was the front door tothe house and there was no sign of the dog. Proceeding into the entry, hefound an even bigger mess. A lamp had been knocked over, and the throw rug waswadded against one wall.In the front room the TV was loudly blaring a Cartoon channel,and the family room was strewn with toys and various items of clothing.In the kitchen, dishes filled the sink, breakfast food wasspilled on the counter, the fridge door was open wide, dog food was spilled onthe 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 morepiles 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 it made its way outthe bathroom door. As he peered inside he found wet towels, scummy soap andmore toys strewn over the floor. Miles of toilet paper lay in a heap andtoothpaste had been smeared over the mirror and walls.As he rushed to the bedroom, he found his wife still curled upin the bed in her pajamas, reading a novel. She looked up at him, smiled, andasked 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 comehome 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.'

Ain't that the truth. I often find myself telling Jake when he gets home, "Just don't look around the house and it won't seem like I did nothing all day." Ain't life grand?!
