[quote=Anonymous]I am a mom to 4 and work full time now, though I took some time off between no. 3 and 4.  Husband works full time as well (both of us are lawyers at small firms). My job is not as flexible as my husband's.  No outside help of any kind - no family, nanny  house cleaner or lawn care, though we had a nanny for about a year but my kids preferred aftercare at school.  Things are pretty hectic and crazy when all the after school and sports activities are thrown into the mix but calmed down somewhat once a couple of the kids reached high school and are more independent.

I am very organized at work and at home.  I almost never take a lunch break or socialize after work, and we do most of the shopping, cooking and cleaning on the weekends.  The kids all help with the cleaning, laundry, lawn and now even some cooking.  Yes, our family life/home is more often than not busy and messy but I'm okay with that. I like my job and all four are happy, do very well in school and have learned to be responsible - can't ask for more than that![/quote]
