Yesterday, my wife had to go meet her mom who was sick. She’s a SAHM and our babysitter had some school work so she couldn’t come. So I took 2 days off to take care of the kid. My wife left home before the kids woke up because she had to catch a bus to her mom’s place.
My wife usually makes really really healthy food for the kids. So I thought one cheat day wouldn’t hurt them. I made eggs, bacon and waffles for breakfast.
The 13yo wanted to eat this curry that my mom makes. So I took the recipe from my mom and prepared that for lunch.
The 11yo said that he wanted burger and fries for dinner. So dinner was sorted as well.
They then wanted to watch the new spiderman movie with peanut butter ice cream. My wife doesn’t like those kinds of movies so the kids rarely get to watch them either.
So basically it was a full day of fun for the kids.
Today, I made healthy meals for the kids. Porridge and fruit for breakfast, cauliflower soup and grilled ham n cheese sandwiches for lunch.
When my wife came home at around 4 pm, she was really tired so she took a nap until dinner.
While we were prepping for dinner, the kids were sitting at the dining table and telling their mom all about yesterday. She was smiling throughout the confederation so I thought she wasn’t mad at me or anything.
However, after the kids were put to bed and we were in our room, she started saying that I’m an irresponsible father and that I shouldn’t have been so lenient with the kids for an entire day. She said that I’m a lost cause at parenting and that she shouldn’t have left the kids with me.
