My husband and I have six children. This weekend, he took the three oldest to a basketball tournament, leaving me home with the three youngest. He had adventures like:

everybody was hungry
somebody wanted to use the computer
somebody whining about not fitting in
somebody not getting any play time
where did that one child go?

I had adventures like:
everybody was hungry
babies getting distracted doing chores
somebody climbing on the table eating butter
somebody going outside to play and losing her boots, while
somebody else rang the doorbell repeatedly with said boots in his hands, while
somebody else called desperately for help with the baby standing in the snow in socks

We both got to deal with:
people crying
people staying up too late
people cranky because they stayed up too late
extra work for ourselves, while
simultaneously having much more time on our hands.

We both will be glad to share the load again.

What is your day like when your spouse is away?
