Just once...

• Just once I'd like to go out for the night and come home and find all my "duties" have been done.
• Just once I'd like to run a dishwasher and not have to empty it.
• Just once I'd like to run a load of laundry and not have to fold it.
• Just once I'd like to not have to be the bad guy.
• Just once I'd like to not have to make dinner.
• Just once I'd like to be told how nice I look (even if I look like crap).
  
• Just once I'd like to not have to do the food shopping.
• Just once I'd like to get flowers for no reason.
• Just once I'd like to not have to make all the vacation plans.
• Just once I'd like to be surprised with a night out.
  
• Just once I'd like for my kids to pick up after themselves.
• Just once I'd like to be able to sit and relax. In silence.

But most of these make me a mom and a wife...and I wouldn't trade it for a thing.
