When you come home from work, and while you were gone, your wife (who also works) has cleaned the house, washed, dried, and folded 3 loads of laundry, made dinner, helped the kids with their homework, decorated the tree, lost 10 lbs, painted the den, and tiled the backsplash in the kitchen...and you say "Nice Fire Baby...it's reallly putting out a lot of heat!" ..........And she smiles ....a real smile.....in fact, she beams.
