That is exactly how my wife described it when she ran a home daycare. Once she pointed that out to me, I began to see the importance of her wanting to talk about every little thing that she had on her mind.

Interesting that you mentioned phone conversations. When my wife did day care, she talked to another provider during nap time every day. My wife and that provider seemed to be quite good friends and we did a lot of things together as couples for many years. Once my wife started work outside the home, that relationship changed and now none of us have anything to do with each other (except my wife and I of course).
