I had someone ask me this early on when Leo was about 6 months. She, yes, a childless she, asked me if I watched a lot of TV. I found the comment irritating and funny at the same time. I still kind of chafe at the term stay at home mom, maybe because I grew up thinking this was an easy and maybe slightly boring job. Easy and boring it’s not!
