   And most stay at home moms don’t! They get “why is this place a mess??” and “What’s for dinner?”

   Because she knows what a handful her kids can be. But she wasn’t totally away from children during her day, she had to contend with that baby Ted at the office.

   Ninmas, I don’t think it’s so much out of embarassment. I think more likely he’s thinking, “Let’s hurry and get home… What’s for dinner?”

   I hope John is overhearing this conversation, because he probably forgot to thank Ellie for helping him out when his assistant couldn’t come in.

    algurka; in yesterday’s panel, Jon thanked Ellie for helping out as I recall. He just forgets to say thank you around the house.

    No, Comic-Nut, John did not thank Elly yesterday.
    He was too busy defending his jackass friend Ted.

    @Susan001 speaking of our burrow friend, maybe he is cahoots with the other one, Kanye? :-D

    But will Ellie get paid and thanked? That is the $64,000 question. My guess is no.

    It is nice to be thanked, but I’ll be just as happy with the paycheck.

    Ash, will she get paid and thanked for what? Helping out John? I hope so. For being a good mom? Thats not something someone should be paid for, they should do it to raise their son/daughter to be the best person possible.
