 Kathy Mitchell thinks the atmosphere in her Surrey, B.C. home is like a circus - five kids under the age of eight will do that to anyone. Her easygoing, garrulous husband, Greg, talks a good line about parenting but hasn t really had to do mom s daily grunt work. But that s not a problem for Greg: "It s easy," he declares, "and it s only for a couple of days." Famous last words. This weekend, as our Crash Test Mommy, Greg is put to the test. Kathy is whisked off by private plane for a relaxing weekend with her friend Carla to a stunning resort on Vancouver Island s west coast. By the time Kathy comes home after 48 hours, it s Greg who looks like he s been through the wringer. He claims to have learned a lot about being patient, about breaking old habits and about learning to be more organized. More than anything he s happy to have his wife and the mother of his children back at home and on the job.
