Ah you m...Umm Ibrahim: Alhamdulliah you got a maid! Ah you must feel so much more relaxed! I get so upset when i work so hard to keep thing neat and tidy and the kids just ransake as they move...ugh. But I do love when my house is tidy and in perfect rder and there is peace in each room. Of ocurse this happens so seldom that when it does i enjoy it all the more.<BR/><BR/>Safiyyah: Subhanallah all women have QUITE a load. No wonder Paradise is at the feet of mothers...so much giving to give.... it's amazing what we can handle all at once. Jobs, kids, houses, finances, and men think they have it hard....that's why movies like Mr. Mom are so funny becuase trying to watch a man handle it all is really hard for them because we do it naturally and they have to work to do it. Yani Allah made us able to multi-task these things while He made man able to attend to the more "manly" things... that said i know men do it too and many do it well, but if they really had a choice most likely they would rather work the 9-5 than stay home with the hosue and kids.American Muslima Writerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17494763839971976761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4797518818272666624.post-82024669597087946672008-04-10T10:17:00.000+04:002008-04-10T10:17:00.000+04:00Just 2 things to say:1.

Why do you clean your home for your husband? What has he got to do with anything? Your the one that spends most of her time in it so you should keep it how it suits you. <BR/><BR/>I have a kid, I am pregnant, I am at uni and I'm working and if I don't want to vacuum I won't. Its that simple. I have also been a mum at home without uni or work and still, if I don't want to do it I wont, without in-put from hubby thankyouverymuch.<BR/><BR/>If hubby wants the house a certain way, get him to do it :)<BR/><BR/>Love the blogHoudahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13757266744262533990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4797518818272666624.post-49647731745978102842008-04-10T06:31:00.000+04:002008-04-10T06:31:00.000+04:00As Salaamu Alaikum Sister:Wow, you sound like you ...As Salaamu Alaikum Sister:<BR/><BR/>Wow, you sound like you have quite a load! Say dua for Allah (swt) to make it easy for you to get a maid. I'll make dua for you, too.<BR/><BR/>You husband has a long work day!<BR/><BR/>Funny how men seem to think that we sit around all day and do nothing, lol. <BR/><BR/>I am now retired from my full-time job, but I am busier than ever. At times, I wonder how I managed to keep up back then.Safiyyahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07670659439981133346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4797518818272666624.post-23021727686528480262008-04-09T17:35:00.000+04:002008-04-09T17:35:00.000+04:00Salam, Cleaning doesn't come naturally to me eithe...Salam, Cleaning doesn't come naturally to me either. Not my idea of a good time but the sense of satisfaction is great when everything is neat and clean... mind you the kids wreck that sense of peace in minutes. lol. I am really happy at the moment alhamdu Lillah because I have a lady coming in 6 hours a week (2 hours 3x a week) and it makes an enormous difference! At least the ironing pile doesn't build up to Himalayan proportions and I can get her to do a few other things for me that I hate doing like cleaning the oven! Alhamdu lillah!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
