Circulating around social media are these funny posters, on them you see six photos and they
illustrate what other peoples perspectives are of certain groups of
people. Among the ones I found
especially cute were the Military Wife, the Stay at Home Mom and the German Shepherd
ones. Funnily enough, I have not seen
one that demonstrates the Wife of a Deployed Soldier poster. I really should make one.
“What my friends think I do”
the photo would be of me lovingly putting together frilly care packages filled
with handmade crafts made by me, cookies…decorations, the box would be
decorated in hearts and ribbons…
“What my mom thinks I do” I would
probably be passed out from drinking too much wine while playing on Facebook (haha mom if you are reading this)
“What society thinks I do” I would be Skyping or writing a fancy calligraphy letter that was SWAK and perhaps marking the days off on a calendar with hearts and rainbows anxiously awaiting his return (or hibernating and crying while neglecting my children as I dwell on how much more difficult my life is compared to others-there are a couple of scenarios for this)

“What my kids and pets think I do” I would be tirelessly driving
them around in my Super Hero cape, cooking, cleaning, shopping, doing laundry, finding all that is
lost, kissing boo boo’s, playing endlessly, getting drinks and snacks, moving
the sun, carrying what they don’t want to carry but must have, petting, feeding, fixing the fence, throwing the ball
and breaking up doggie disagreements (this is just to name a few)
“What I think I do” there would be a
picture of me carefully balancing it all while still looking good and smiling and...
“What I really do” there would be a
picture of me on the couch all disheveled with a glass of wine in one hand and
a cup of coffee in the other surrounded by kids, pets and toys.
Yes, that would just about describe a day in the life. I obviously can't make one of those cute posters because I would need to make it REALLY big to fit in all the awesomeness that my kids and pets think of me. I wouldn't have it any other way though, unless of course I actually got to have my husband home to share in all the fun!
