For me, working for pay is a very small amount of what I do. At the moment most of the emphasis is on being a Mom with less emphasis on the working part. I really like it this way though. For me it's really important to be at home with my daughter, but I don't want to completely leave the work force during these childbearing years...I gues it's a way of placating my fear that if I don't have anything to put on my resume for this period of time that I will be penalized later. So for now I do my work during times when babyjama sleeps, and I'm quite content with that.

I only took off two weeks after my daughter was born. It was a necessity for me to return to work. I will never do that again! I truely feel like I went back too soon. Enjoy it for as long as it lasts! |
