One shops at Old Navy and the Gap outlet store... the other wears long flowing skirts, henna tattoos, and Birkenstocks.
One would love to travel...the other is a decided homebody.
One champions traditional foods and food prep methods...the other adores her food processor, stand mixer, and toaster oven.
One believes that spontaneous labor is almost always best...the other languished at the end of her last long pregnancy, trying every "natural" method possible to try to get things started.
One loves nearly everything about breastfeeding...the other almost always feels antsy to wean her baby at around a year.
One has sworn off refined sweeteners for herself...the other hasn't yet taken much of a stand for her kids' own health when we're away from home.
One is a planner by nature...the other has determined to leave her fertility in God's hands.
One would love to have a daughter someday...the other gets extremely upset when people offer sympathy for the fact that she has three healthy boys.
One loves having a clean house...the other much prefers blogging to cleaning...

Does that make me a bigamist? ;)
No, it makes you the husband of one woman, who is exceptionally multi-faceted. :)
I love this post! I've never taken the time to examine the 2 or 17 sides of me, but you put it very eloquently.
This is a great post! Thanks for sharing...
Sounds a lot like me!
Sounds like Mary and Martha are both alive and well at your house, too. Mary + Martha = Mindy!
I'm with you especially on the last 2. Thanks for posting:)
Beautifully written!
