Man's wish...

A man was sick and tired of going
to work every day while his wife stayed home.

He wanted her to see what he went through so he prayed:
"Dear Lord: I go to work every day and
put in 8 hours while my wife merely stays at home.
I want her to know what I go through,
so please allow her body to switch with mine for a day.
Amen..”

God, in his infinite wisdom, granted the man'swish.

The next morning, sure enough,
the man awoke as a woman.
He arose, cooked breakfast forhis mate,
awakened the kids, set out their school clothes,
fed them breakfast, packed their lunches,
drove them to school, came home and
picked up the dry cleaning, took it to
the cleaners and stopped at the bank
to make a deposit, went grocery shopping,
then drove home to put away the groceries,
paid the bills and balanced the checkbook.
He cleaned the cat's litter box and bathed the dog.
Then it was already 1 P.M.and he hurried to
make the beds,do the laundry, vacuum, dust,
and sweep and mop the kitchen floor.
Ran to the school to pick up the kids and
got into an argument with them on the way home.
Set out milk and cookies and got the kids
organized to do their homework,
Then set up the ironing board and
watched TV while he did the ironing.
At 4:30 he began peeling potatoes and
washing vegetables for salad, breaded
the pork chops and snapped fresh beans for supper.
After supper, he cleaned the kitchen, ran the dishwasher,
folded laundry, bathed the kids, and put them to bed.
At 9 P.M. He was exhausted and, though his
daily chores weren'tfinished, he went to bed where
he was expected to make love, which he managed
to get through without complaint.

The next morning, he awoke and immediately
knelt by the bed and said, Lord, “I don't know
what I was thinking. Iwas so wrong to envy
my wife's being able to stay home all day.
Please, oh please, let us trade back."

The Lord, in his infinite wisdom, replied,
"My son, I feel you have learned your lesson
and I will be happy to change
things back to the way they were.
You'll just have to wait nine months, though.
You got pregnant last night."
