A Union for Moms?

I am thinking that we "moms" could start a union.... if you have a union then you can strike, right? I realize that I won't get any higher wages... but the benefits could improve. A "thank you" once in a while would be great. Is "I love you Mom" really too much to ask for? If nothing else, at least I would have comraderie amongst the moms?

There's that old e-mail joke about how a Dad comes home from work and finds the kids riding toys strewn across the front yard, can barely pull because bicycles have been left in the middle of the driveway... walks in the front door and toys, clothes, and trash is on the floor... he looks for his wife.... walks into the kitchen - food and mess all over the place...peanut butter and jelly left out on the counters... sticky finger prints on the refridgerator.... he starts to panic runs up stairs tripping over the toys on the way... rushes to his bedroom and finds his wife laying there reading a book.... asks her "Are you okay?" "What happened?", her reply:

"You know how everyday you ask me what I did all day? Well, I didn't do it today..."

That describes my life... although my kids are older and the messes are a little different... that pretty much is it....
