[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, yes chopping as in meal prep. :-)

And yes, I'm lazy! And no, not the world's best Mom. But having the help around the house certainly helps me pay way more attention to my kids, work part-time at the Embassy, and the bonus is I get to try new recipes, watch Ted talks, have lunch with friends, go on hikes alone, learn how to crochet, and catch up on all of those projects (like a "legacy drawer") that I always swore I would do one day.

We sacrificed a lot to move overseas to do the job that we do. I'm taking advantage of the good parts, like household help, without a second thought. My kids are in school full-time and I am THRILLED to spend none of that time cleaning or doing food-prep or organizing the pantry. Beyond thrilled. Ecstatic.

Glad some of you found the humor in it! :-)[/quote]

OP, I'm happy for you.  I work my ass off, but I'm glad to know you have the luxuries you do.  I'm secure and happy enough to know that it doesn't mean you're less of a Mom or less of a woman... it just means you have help, and more power to you!  I'd do it if I could.  [/quote]
