The conversation went like this:
R: What if we only had one dinobite and one drop of milk?
Me: Then we would be really hungry.
R: and poor.
Me: And your mother would have to go back to work and you would have to go to day care.
S: NOooOooooO!!!!!!!!!!
(Dinobites are the off brand bag cereal imitation fruity pebbles)
I will admit, that lately, being a stay at home mom has not been as lovely as I thought it was when I first got to be a stay at home mom. I'm not feeling very successful at it. I am mostly lonely. We are in a tight budget...still. I don't have much to say about my day at the end of it, but i'm still exhausted like I saved the universe that day. So, on and so forth.
So, to hear from my three year old that day care would be a fate worse than watching PBS kids, made me feel pretty good for a while. And I will admit that, on that day, he watched a little less PBS kids.

You are my hero. Seriously. :) Let's hang out this week.
That's exactly right! I don't have much to say about my day, but I feel like I've saved the universe. Glad Simeon appreciates the saving.
Down the road a few years, you will be forever grateful that you are a stay at home mom. It may not seem like it now, but it's rewarding in the end.
