Number 3: Are we making stay-at-home-momdom harder than it needs to be? | What homemakers are getting WRONG
After a life catch-up involving tick bites, a rained out beach trip, and sleeping through snoring on a girls trip, we dive into a topic we've noticed has been getting some attention lately. Are stay at home moms making their jobs harder than they need to be? What does a stay at home dad we found lately think of the job? Can two things be true at once?
