You and your wife have apparently decided it's a good idea for your wife to remain home and be "mom" in these formative years. Any number of studies prove the wisdom of giving a kid great parenting before age 4 or 5.
You both are making a crucial investment to give your child the best start in life. Wise move and if the price is that you live lean for a couple years, it's well worth it. If the price is that you have to listen to a few snippy comments, it'd be well worth your sacrifice when you see your child graduate college.
All you can do is the best you can do. Rich guys hear their wives gripe, too. You can't earn enough to buy peace. You're doing your best to suppport your family. They are safe, sheltered, and well fed. Anyone asks for more than your best, tell them to bite you.
