[quote=Anonymous]I've been home since before my daughter (now two) was born. My husband and I had just relocated and I quickly became pregnant and it didn't make sense to me to start a job when I was planning to stay home anyway. Honestly? I don't love staying home. I like the relative freedom of being able to meet friends for coffee, being able to put more time into cooking, and of course spending time with our toddler, but there are limits to this. Mostly I feel isolated and bored. I'm just not good at being a SAHM - I keep a good schedule but am not big on playing with or reading to or teaching our daughter (isn't that terrible?). I just try to keep us out and about as much as possible. I'm currently pregnant with our second and am interviewing for a part-time job in my field. I am thrilled! I think working will be better for me as a person and better for my family overall. I think it will make me value the time I spend with my children more, too.[/quote]
