SAHM

Tomorrow will be the official day I was to return to work. Return to 4 - 5 year old Preschoolers that have not really seen much of me since Halloween. Return to flu bugs, paperwork and getting dressed every morning . . . I have decided to not return. WE have decided for me to be a Stay-At-Home-Mom!

It was a rough decision to make . . . but looking at Reese's darling face makes me forget all the money I was making (yeah, right) and enjoy (soon) walks to the park, hanging out little friends and just enjoying every moment of being a Mother.

We will look for other ways soon for me to still be working. It is a weird feeling to not be employed - I have had a job (while going to night school) for the last 10 years! I am sure I won't miss it.

I have become friendly with a shop owner, Beth, here in San Bruno at Lovely Bump. I wish I had found this store when I was pregnant! Everything is gently used, and for really great prices. I have taken in some clothes of mine and traded for baby items - the store goes from Infant to Preteen! I am posting adds for her on Craigslist in hopes of making a bit of cash on commission, but we will see. It is a lot of time at the computer . . . lots of uploading, careful wording and keeping track of adds.

Maybe I will watch other children, maybe I will still work at Palcare part time (or when they need me) or maybe I will take a Baby & Me Yoga class.

MAYBE, I will do it all!
