Six married men will be dropped on an island with one car and 3 kids each for six weeks.
Each kid will play two sports and either take music or dance classes
There is no fast food.
Each man must take care of his 3 kids; keep his assigned house clean, correct all homework, and complete science projects, cook, do laundry, and pay a list of 'pretend' bills with not enough money.
In addition, each man will have to budget in money for groceries each week.
Each man must remember the birthdays of all their friends and relatives, and send cards out on time.
Each man must also take each child to a doctor's appointment, a dentist appointment and a haircut appointment.
He must make one unscheduled and inconvenient visit per child to the Urgent Care.
He must also make cookies or cup cakes for a social function.
Each man will be responsible for decorating his own assigned house, planting flowers outside and keeping it presentable at all times.
The men will only have access to television when the kids are asleep and all chores are done.
The men must shave their legs, wear uncomfortable yet stylish shoes, keep fingernails manicured and eyebrows groomed.
During one of the six weeks, the men will have to endure severe abdominal cramps, back aches, and have extreme, unexplained mood swings but never once complain or slow down from other duties.
They must attend weekly school meetings, church, and find time at least once to spend the afternoon at the park or a similar setting.
They will need to read a book and then pray with the children each night and in the morning, feed them, dress them, brush their teeth and comb their hair by 7 :00 am.
A test will be given at the end of the six weeks, and each father will be required to know all of the following information: each child's birthday, height, weight, shoe size, clothes size and doctor's name. Also the child's weight at birth, length, time of birth, and length of labor, each child's favorite color, middle name, favorite snack, favorite song, favorite drink, favorite toy, biggest fear and what they want to be when they grow up.
The kids vote them off the island based on performance. . The last man wins only if...he still has enough energy to be intimate with his spouse at a moment's notice.
If the last man does win, he can play the game over and over and over again for the next 18-25 years eventually earning the right to be called Mother!
After you get done laughing, you can copy and paste this and send it to as many females as you think will get a kick out of it and as many men as you think can handle it. Just don't send it back to me.... I'm going to bed!!!!!!

Jennifer- First of all, HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO YOU! But C'mon, I do half of that stuff already, plus I coach baseball and basketball for my son 5 nights a week, I drive my teenage daughter and her friends somewhere every night, I maintain my home, my yard, my pool, I pick up dinner 4 nights a week, I grill it the other 3 nights, I put up with my mother in law every weekend and I pay for everything! PLEEEEEEASE!!!!
And for being ready at a moments notice for intimacy, yeah right! What's your husband's name and phone number?
Just kidding, HAVE A WONDERFUL MOTHER'S DAY, I'M SURE YOU DESERVE IT!
My husband really doesn't think that it would really be that hard:) I hear things like, "Oh, I'm sure spending the afternoon at the park is really HARD!" But you know it means watching one who is making a run for the lake, another who needs to use the potty and another one stuck on top of a big rock. Yep, park playdates are FUN!
I would be off the island so fast, there would be no need to unpack, I just brought my son to a track meet that had him on a bus @ 6:45 and no idea when i'll be getting the call to drop everyrthing to go pick him up?
Alpine Lakes Real Estate - That is too funny! I have actually done that before!
Jennifer - LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!
Larry - HAHA! Iwill be the first to admit that we ARE a bit difficult!
Kevin - You rock man! My husband does alot also, but wouldn't want the mommy job. I'm truely sorry about the mother-in-law part!! As for the other, you can call him anytime, he will tell you that there is no problem there!!
Joan and Lisa - Let's call FOX!!
Cheryl - Oh well, I don't think Kevin did either! At least you enjoyed it and that was the point!
Jennifer...I big smile from me...funny thing is that I was the one doing most of these chores in my first marriage. But, I can see why many families only have 2 kids...can't afford the GAS!
I like this posting to your Blog Jennifer. I wish you a happy mothers day as well to you.
