How much more money and time did you spend celebrating Mothers Day than you did Fathers Day this year?  Now how about for your spouse?  I feel so guilty this morning looking back at my Mother’s Day vs. my husband’s Father’s Day.  Here are 5 reasons why I owe my husband a Father’s day do-over:

  1. He had to work on Fathers Day after already working one of his busiest weeks ever with his job.
  2. He had to wake up 3 hours earlier for his job on Fathers Day.
  3. He worked 2 hours longer for his job on Fathers Day.
  4. He just wanted to relax and do nothing after he got home; I insisted we all go out to a restaurant.
  5. He wanted to watch TV and NOT talk about work;  I brought up his job 3 more times.

Now let me change that all around to if that happened to ME on Mother’s Day; I would be fuming!  Then, I think back to how he treated me on Mother’s Day and I feel the guilt.

  1.  I was off from work that day.
  2.  I didn’t have to set an alarm clock or wake up with the kids because he took care of them.
  3. He made me breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
  4. He listened to what I wanted that day, including some time to myself at the mall.
  5. He pampered me and made it a stress-free day.

Dads and Husbands are too often portrayed as the “dumb idiot” who can’t handle the kids or do anything right; and that is not fair.  My husband, my father, my father-in-law, and many men I know are patient, hard working, and show unconditional love.  They deserve more credit and should be pampered just as much on Father’s Day as we moms are on Mother’s Day.
