Mr. Mom
My friend Amy at work today approached me and asked "How is the Mr. Mom thing going?" For some reason it hadn't occurred to me that this is a pretty accurate description of what my life is currently like.
I have always shared in our responsibilities and I haven't lost my job, but in many other ways the situation is the same.
- Tara got a great job
- She is away from home (permanently)
- I am taking care of 100% of the house/kid-let
So far this hasn't been that bad, a little tiring but not bad. Trevor and I are enjoying our time together and actually getting along better than previously. I am finding more patience with him and focusing more attention to him that I had been before. It's almost a shame that it took Tara going away for me to build a stronger relationship with my son.
Now all I have to worry about is if a creepy Martin Mull is going to fall in love with Tara while she is away. :P
