You seem to forget that I am doing a job with monetary value -- childcare. My husband works 80 hours per week and he would have to hire 2 nannies to replace me if anything happened to me. The work I do now is worth more materially than what I did before having kids.
That's a little unfair. You should view it right now as one nanny. If you were to get a job you'd most likely need ONE nanny. Not to mention that you won't need a nanny after the youngest is in school.

If people are super rich, just assume they have much more leisure time than you and much less drudgery. Period, the end.
No need to argue about it. It's like arguing about water being wet. Talk about a waste of time.

Love how you included drinking water in the car but didn't mention lunch for either you or your kid! I'm any case, sounds like a great, well balanced schedule!

If we went back to calling women who don't work for pay "housewives" I bet there would be a lot less consternation from the working mothers.
