One day a man comes home from work
to find total mayhem at home. The kids were outside still in their
pajamas playing in the mud and muck. There were empty food boxes and
wrappers all around.
As he proceeded into the house, he found an even bigger mess. Dishes
on the counter, dog food spilled on the floor, a broken glass under
the table, and a small pile of sand by the back door. The family
room was strewn with toys and various items of clothing, and a lamp
had been knocked over.
He headed up the stairs, stepping over toys, to look for his wife.
He was becoming worried that she may be ill, or that something had
happened to her.
He found her in the bedroom, still in bed with her pajamas on, reading
a book.
She looked up at him, smiled, and asked how his day went. He looked
at her bewildered and asked, "what happened here today?"
She again smiled and answered, "You know everyday when you
come home fromwork and ask me what I did today?" "Yes,"
he replied.
She answered, "Well today I didn’t do it!"
