THIS ONE IS FOR THE GIRLS.
Voted Women's Favorite Email of the Year
A man was sick and tired of going to work every day while his wife stayed
home. He wanted her to see what he went through so he prayed:
"Dear Lord, I go to work every day and put in 8 hours while my wife merely
stays at home.
I want her to know what I go through, so please allow her body to switch
with mine for a day. Amen."
God, in His infinite wisdom, granted the man's wish. The next morning, sure
enough, the man awoke as a woman. He arose, cooked breakfast for his mate,
awakened the kids, set out their school clothes, fed them breakfast, packed
their lunches,drove them to school, came home and picked up the dry
cleaning, took it to the cleaners and stopped at the bank to make a deposit,
went grocery shopping, then drove home to put away the groceries, pay the
bills and balance the check book. He cleaned the cat's litter box and bathed
the dog.
Then it was already 1:00 p.m. and he hurried to make the beds, do the
laundry, vacuum, dust, and sweep and mop the kitchen floor. Ran to the
school to pick up the kids and got into an argument with them on the way
home. Set out cookies and milk and got the kids organized to do their
homework, then set up the ironing board and watched TV while he did the
ironing.
At 4:30 p.m. he began peeling potatoes and washing vegetables for salad,
breaded the pork chops and snapped fresh beans for supper. After supper he
cleaned the kitchen, ran the dishwasher, folded laundry, bathed the kids,
and put them to bed. At 9:00 p.m. he was exhausted and, though his daily
chores weren't finished, he went to bed where he was expected to make love
which he managed to get through without complaint.
The next morning he awoke and immediately knelt by the bed and said, "Lord,
I don't know what I was thinking. I was so wrong to envy my wife's being
able to stay home all day. Please, oh please, let us trade back."
The Lord, in His infinite wisdom, replied, "My son, I feel you have learned
your lesson and I will be happy to change things back to the way they were.
You'll just have to wait nine months, though. You got pregnant last night."
** of course we could add the next 12 months or so, for breastfeeding **
