[quote=Anonymous]I went part time and don’t regret it. We bought smaller and further out to make the numbers work. I remember really needing to talk with my mom after school some days and I wanted to give my kids that. I spend a lot of seemingly menial time with my kids but that’s when the magic happens. I looked for a job with excellent flexibility and changed careers to make it work. I missed my old career less than I thought I would. Most of my heart and energy goes to my kids now, if that makes sense. If I was still full time i’d def be flailing. Don’t get me wrong they exhaust and annoy me often! It’s much harder and more frustrating than my ‘job.’ But it means more to me than anything else in my life. [/quote]
