After a long day at the office who looks forward to coming home to an empty house, having to prepare dinner for the whole family, run a few loads of laundry, prepare tomorrow’s lunches for the kids, supervise baths, help with homework and then squeeze in some time for exercise and time for yourself? Times were so easy when the children were babies; when your only concern was how many poopie cloth diapers you would have to rinse out at the end of the day.  When you put it that way, the first scenario might sound better, but in truth I miss those diaper days.
