I think husbands really see how much a mom does also when they themselves get a chance on taking care of the kids or helping out themselves. My H has never paid me a compliment of a good mom per say. I alwasy did w/out his help. So now that my H is gone it really makes no difference w/out him. Some people say its hard w/out the other half,but not in my case cuz I did it all myself & we have 3 girls (WHINEY CITY) 6,7 & 10yrs old.
