You’re welcome. And thank you – your comment drew me to re-read this post, which I needed too. It’s easy to get caught in the day to day, isn’t it?

There are many times I have missed my career, but I would not give up staying at home and watching my kids grown and develop for anything.

Just wanted to let you know I loved this piece so much that I shared it on my twitter feed. I was going to mention you, but couldn't find your handle on your site. So I figure, I just leave the link to the tweet instead. Lovely piece! Thanks for sharing 🙂

I can't say I've NEVER regretted the decision…I think to do so would be denying that I am, after all human. I especially have these moments when I'm cleaning pee off the toilet for the 5th time that day…like…really?! THIS is NOT why I earned a college degree.
Then my husband reminds me that I have the most important job in the world and helps me see a little further down the road than I can to a time when our children are happy, successful and contributing members of society and he tells me that when they get to that point, it'll be because of the time and love and effort I put in. Being a SAHM is an investment that gives HUGE returns!

I may go back to work in a few years but I'm enjoying it right now.
