You know what I realized tonight? I wish I had a wife! I wish I had someone I trusted mire than life to stay home and love our children. I wish I had someone who would integrate an age appropriate curriculum for our son. I wish I had someone to teach the children how to cope with all of the stress and frustrations life through behavioral development activities. I wish I had someone who cooked homemade from real ingredient meals and snacks for me and my family. I wish I had someone that feels broken every time one of her babies cries. Someone to handle the tantrums of a 2 year old who is going just trying to figure out his world and where he is in it. I wish I had someone who could at the same time nurse a hungry infant. I wish I had someone who would stop in the middle of eating her now cold food to wipe a butt or mop pee off the floor for the 4th time that day. I wish I had someone who ensured I didn't go hungry at dinner time. I wish I had someone who is always trying to figure out the next day before the sun goes down on the current day. I wish I hand someone to handle important phone calls and appointments. I wish I had someone to wake up with the children whenever they wake at night.A person who, even though she had a very tough day, plans a night out for the family without mention of a thank you. I wish I had someone who would stay up long past everyone else in the home just to clean the house because she was too busy the rest of the day. I wish I had someone who gave up dreams and passions just to do all of these things for her family. Someone who still does not get an opinion on big decisions but supports the decison I make no matter what she truly feels. I wish I had a wife! I am proud of my J.O.B. as a wife and mother but man do I wish I had an ounce of gratitude. Instead I'm treated as a second class citizen. My husband will gladly sit on his bottom as I try to wrangle both kids while making his dinner and cleaning the house. Being married can sometimes be the most lonesome condition. I'm still grateful to God for giving me the opportunity to learn dedication, endurance, and patience.
