Mommies Don't Get Sick Days

While I would definitely put full time mom-hood on the top of my lists of dream jobs, there is one benefit that a regular 9 to 5 job has that this otherwise wonderful and amazing job does not: sick days. Being sick right now, I'm definitely remembering days when it was easy to just lie in bed without a care in the world. It never seemed like quite the luxury that it does now.

However, with this thinking comes the realization that even if I worked for money like my husband does (and thus got the theoretical sick day), I'd still be a mother. And very likely, I'd still be home sick and entertaining my baby all the while.
