Husband Says Wife Does "Nothing Much All Day" And Actually Wins The Internet

Brad Kearns posted about his wife doing "not much really" while he goes to work, but all isn't as it seems.

Brad Kearns thought he was making a simple Facebook post about a long day at work, but one line about his wife, Sarah, was enough to get people talking fast.

He described his own day as massive, then joked that Sarah, a stay-at-home mom caring for their three children, was doing not much really at home. That kind of comment usually lands badly, especially online, where people are quick to assume the worst.

But Brad's post had a twist, and the reaction changed once readers got to the end.

That changed the tone of the whole post.

Brad’s “nothing much all day” claim also echoes the husband who admitted he didn’t love his wife’s cooking.

Brad even referred to Sarah as "the glue" and thanked her for everything she does.
