#household-labor

I think one of my best friend's moms summed it up really well. She said she'd love someone to walk the dog for once—not because she doesn't love her dog, but because she always does it, and I'm sure no one really notices.

"It doesn't leave much for him at the end of the month, but it does give me enough to pay my mortgage and other expenses. It essentially makes me the breadwinner in my household."

The work that you're doing to make your life, and the lives of your kids better shows that you value yourself. That value is what matters.
