Fly on the Wall

Hey I am Moe the Fly. I have been stuck in this house for a few days now. There have been some interesting things going down here. One in particular, was a conversation that I witnessed last Thursday. I thought I would share it with you.

The lady of the house came in with the children. It appeared as if she had just been shopping, and with the help of the little lady was putting things away in the kitchen. She was on the phone talking with the husband. He was late getting home that day, but was about to return. She was in the kitchen when the man of the house entered through the garage door.

"Wow!!! Did you have a spurt of energy today? What made you want to clean so much? Are you in the nesting phase??? You better not be pregnant! I guess you just wanted to get ready for Karma's baby shower on Saturday."

The Mrs. just laughed. She knew the real answer. She didn't do it. She had two lovely ladies come and scrub away. She let it sink in to the husband a little bit more. The husband kept going on and on about how nice it was. The Mrs. just continue to chuckle to herself never directly answering the questions that the husband continued to ask.

He continued to be baffled at what came over his wife. She had sat down to feed the little man, and he questioned her again. She turned and looked at him sheepishly, and the real answer dawned on him. She began laughing, and then witnessed the torn expression.

First a great big grin spread across his face and out blurted "I like it!" Then his brow furrowed as logic set in...you see the husband suffers from post partum money depression...and this costs money. He really likes the idea, but is struggling with paying for it.

Overall he understood her plight. He knows it is hard to 'keep up', but I think he is willing to do this for her. I don't think I have seen the Mrs. this happy in a long time.
