[quote=Anonymous]Just chiming in as an older mom of a now-toddler. I mix SAH with WOH and WAH, a flexible work arrangement that I have had in place for some time, as I want to be with my son and participate in his life and activities as much as possible. We are not in a position for DH to financially support us, so I try to craft it the best I can. I empathize with your concern about feeling "out of sync" with respect to your little one and the ages of your friends' kids, as I am in the same boat where my friends are concerned. I wish you the best in creating your own, unique approach to family and work, because that is what it needs to be. For those of us who do not fit the conventional portrait of 50 something empty nesters, I feel we must come to terms with the fact that we are different, and then move on and enjoy what we have been blessed to have.
