+1.  I remember when my daughter was little and refusing the bottle and I was pumping.  I thought about quitting all the time.  I probably had some mild baby blues and my brain just wasn’t firing on all cylinders.  Everything seemed overwhelming. DH was wonderful and said we would make it work if I wanted to stay home.   The only thing that kept me going was looking into my baby girl’s face and thinking “I want to model that she can be anything she wants to be”.  That was important to me.  If it wasn’t, I wouldn’t be working today.  And that would have been fine.  That baby girl is off at college at HYP now (fully paid for in part due to my $400K salary) and looks like she is going to make an impact (yes, mom blinders).  It has had more of an impact on her brother though.  He is a total bro and can always figure out how to get me to do stuff for him.  But that ability is limited since I do work and he does have to look after himself a bit.  He also sees men working for me and adores my EA who is a guy.  The subtle messages he is getting are also important to me.  [/quote]
