You don’t really know what it’s like for the other person until you’ve walked a mile in his shoes.

Well yesterday I didn’t have to walk a mile, in fact I just stayed home, but I did gain new insight into what it is like to be my wife or more accurately my children’s mother.

I was on dad duty.  How hard can that be?  It’s not so much that it’s hard but it certainly is limiting.  Between taking kids here and there, making meals, playing games, teaching cycling skills and otherwise being available, when do you get your own time?  I don’t know how my wife does it.

So Tracey, thanks for all the time and effort you put in to raising our kids.  It would be hard doing it on my own, thank you for sharing the load.
