How Do They Do That?

| 23 February 2009

I weigh about twice as much as my wife.

I can lift 2 to 3 times as much as she can without breaking a sweat.

I can easily remove jar lids she would starve before removing.

And on some days I feel like I can leap tall buildings in a single bound (or a few anyway).

But, what I cannot understand is how it is that she can carry our 17 lb. baby girl for hours on end, whereas I start having difficulty after a few minutes. I think God knew what He was doing when He designed mommas.

My husband is the same way! And, he has huge arm muscles. He is a deckhand and is a big man. But, you give him our daughter ... and suddenly he is a wimp! LOL

Why is that, I wonder? Oh, well. It's good exercise.
