This topic "piggybacks" on the priorities topic where we discussed what we gave up as working women and moms, what do you think our children give up...honestly!? What do you think they gain? Also please mention your own mothers status and your experience of a child as a SAH or WOH.

Maybe not warped, but I'm so sad for the children.

I actually re-potted a coleus on Arbor Day.

My brother used to do that when he was little. We would try to teach him to count with a pile of coins, but he refused to go above 2. he would always count, "one, two, many." He thought that was quite sufficient, lol. Speaking of memories, that is a memory of him I will probably always have.
