Most stay-at-home moms really do have less time than most think. The children (hubby included) often require more attention; everything is made by hand because usually the budget requires it. Everyone thinks you have all the time in the world because homemaking is a breeze and there really is not much to do to keep a stay-at-home Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1260159263783917143.post-84969594720893303772011-07-10T15:02:49.002-04:002011-07-10T15:02:49.002-04:00Awesome post! :) I love reading random things abou...Awesome post! :) I love reading random things about people so thanks for sharing...<br /><br />~Lol!

I think if a child sees the family eating lots of veggies they want to join in. We just had a birthday in our home and I made a fabulous chocolate carrot cake made with bananas and 4 cups of carrots... I decorated it with raspberries and strawberries.

Your subject is much like the one I wrote last night and posted earlier<br />today!<br /><br />I am not thrilled with hand sewing either, but learned to do hand sewn button holes when I was a pre-teen.

I remember the first time I made this fancy egg casserole, and he ate it, only after downing his bowl of Wheaties.

I agree, dusting just wasn't the same after that!<br /><br />My sister's children eat all sorts of vegetables. She swears that my kids would eat her brussel sprout casserole.
