Tips for WAHMS

Hi there moms. I promised you last week that I'd be having my husband come on and give some tips for your husbands. Well, here it is. I think you'll enjoy what he has to say and you'll probably want to send this on to your husbands. Lol. Enjoy!


Well hello all of readers out there this is Mr. Burgess lol, and I have been asked to address the men of work at home moms and maybe give them a few tips about how to take care of their own WAHM’s. The reason this is important is because I have learned that if mom ain't happy then ain't nobody happy.

However I will tell you guys that this is not very complicated you just need to use your good sense and watch her body language. Besides all of that, she is the one that takes care of you and the kids, as well as works, and working at home makes being a WAHM a full time job…seriously. So what do you think? Should we get started?

Tip #1) Every morning never forget to say good morning, give her a kiss, and tell her that you love her. Not only is this the right way to treat someone you love, it is a very nice way to start the day. I’m sure she would like it and appreciate it to.

Tip #2) If you are gone all day or out taking care of business make sure to call her occasionally and when you do tell her you miss her. She will like the fact that she is important to you and is missed.

Tip #3) If you have to do the shopping make sure that she gives you a list. This is important for a couple of reasons. First of all, it is especially important for people like me who have low impulse control, because the list will help you to purchase what you need and not what you want, which can be a sore point and helps to control deficit spending. The second reason is that she usually runs the house and knows what you need to get anyway.

Tip #4) Never break a promise you have made her. Your relationship with your WHAM is built on trust and once you break her trust it is hard to earn it back. The last thing she needs to do is worry about whether you will break that trust again.

Tip #5) Never lie to your WAHM. This is important for the same reason as tip #4. In addition to that you would not like to be lied to either. No one that I know likes a liar or for that matter respects them either. Respect, like trust, is earned not given.

Tip #6) Even if you work away from the home, help out at home as best as you can. This is important because it will help to lighten up her day a little bit as well as making things go quicker and smoother so the family can spend more time together. Spending time together as a family keeps the clan strong.

Tip #7) Find the time to get her out of the house. This is very important to her sanity as well as your own. A WAHM with cabin fever is no fun to be around. Besides that she probably needs the break by the time you get her out and a little adult conversation with you will not only help you solve the parental and home problems, but will give her a little more elbow room to express herself and her feelings. She will also feel like your equal, which she is.

Tip #8) When you do get her out of the house go someplace nice, or fun, or both. Take her to lunch or dinner at her favorite place or try a new one she may have mentioned. If she likes movies go to the movies. You might even take her shopping for something she wants or likes. New clothes or shoes will work wonders for her self esteem and will work wonders for you too. After all, I want my WAHM to look good. Besides she deserves the best she can have after being super woman for a few days.

Tip #9) Definitely make time for the both of you to be intimate with each other. This is important for the both of you, because this is how you express your affection and desire for each other. Consider getting her some lingerie to wear or a piece of jewelry for her to show off. It is definitely good for her and you when she feels sexy.

What I am saying is basically that you need to be there for her whenever she needs you because chances are she will be there for you when you need her most. The only other piece of advice I might give you is to never put her work down, because it is how she contributes to the financial well being of the household as well as contributing to her sense of equal importance in you relationship.

That is all the advice I can give you guys for now and it is very good advice. The difference between me and most husbands is that I work at home to, so it is easier for me to accomplish these tips. Besides it is important for me to feel the same things that I want her to feel in our relationship also. I hope you all have a great life and I might be back again…Vaya Con Dios!
