New Role

I was helping my older kid with her homework yesterday. After a few minutes, she asked "Dad, can you check my answers?"

"No," I answered, "I need to pick your sister up from school. I'll check them when I get back."

On my way out the door, she said "Dad, you're a housewife now, aren't you." (It was a statement, not a question.)

I looked at her, grinned and said "Yeah, I guess I am." I've got to admit, I'm having fun holding down the fort during my job search. Cleaning house, cooking, doing laundry and taking the kids to school is actually pretty rewarding.
