I'm a SAHM to DD, 23 months and DS 4 1/2 months. The house isalways clean and tidy (although littered with toys while DD is awake) and I cook a decent meal every evening. I also do all the household admin, properly. I do^ have a bit of a back-log of filing that built up while DS was a newborn, but nothing that cant be sorted given a couple of child free hours.
Someone very dear to me keeps telling me that what I do is 'nothing' and equivalent to a permanent holiday. I find it quite hurtful TBH.
I accept that I'm very lucky to be a SAHM and there are certainly harder jobs, but IMVHO/E it is hard work and can be extremely stressful at times.
Anyway, IABU to think that being a SAHM to two DC under two is, in fact, not equivalent to a permanent holiday and to disagree strongly when I'm told that it is?
