What Did You Do Today?

What Did You Do Today?

This one is for all of those mothers out there !!!

One afternoon a man came home from work to find total
mayhem in his house. His three children were outside, still in
their pajamas, playing in the mud with empty food boxes and
wrappers strewn all around the frontyard. The door of his wife’s
car was open, as was the front door to the house.

Proceeding into the entry, he found an even bigger mess. A
lamp had been knocked over, and the throw rug was wadded
against one wall. In the front room the TV was loudly blaring a
cartoon channel, and the family room was strewn with toys and
various items of clothing. In the kitchen, dishes filled the sink,
breakfast food was spilled on the counter, dog food was spilled
on the floor, a broken glass lay under the table, and a small pile
of sand was spread by the back door.

He quickly headed up the stairs, stepping over toys and more
piles of clothes, looking for his wife. He was worried she may
be ill, or that something serious had happened. He found her
lounging in the bedroom, still curled in the bed in her pajamas,
reading a novel. She looked up at him, smiled, and asked how
his day went. He looked at her bewildered and asked, “What
happened here today?”

She again smiled and answered, “You know every day when you
come home from work and ask me what in the world I did
today?”

“Yes” was his incredulous reply.

She answered, “Well, today I didn’t do it.”
