i have been debating if i want to return to work or stay at home with my daughter Chloe. there are pros and cons for both. very conflicted. what advice could you offer??? ↓

I would stay home if possible...Its always a worry to leave them and the guilt isnt worth it...I stayed home for 12 years...I just started back to work 8 months ago and I wish I was home with my kids this summer...Things are hecktic and It would be best to be home with them. ↑ |
I think it all depends on what type of person you are. Some people enjoy sitting home day after day and some do not. I have been home with my daughter 5 years. I am a nurse and could be making alot of money but I chose to stay home with her and I am so glad I did. She is starting school this fall & if I had worked it would really break my heart. You have to learn to live with less but you will get what you need & that is what counts. ↑ |
Stay at home! How many times have I told you this! Major PRO: Hanging out with Randi and Kaden everyday lol ↑ |
It is also hard to find good, trusting sitters as well. I couldn't have left my daughter in day care, no way! But some have no choice. ↑ |
Well if you do go back to work... Chloe can come and play at my house. We have fun toys too. ↑ |
well that is my thing can i trust a sitter and will i be workable in 5 years when she goes to school?? im getting up there in age...lol yeah hanging out with kaden is fun he does make me cry laugh....lol and i feel if i return then im gonna feel guilty. ↑ |
Yes, you will be workable. You will work more than you ever have in your life being a SAHM. Some folks think it is a breeze but it's not fun and games all the time. It is funny because if you stay home you wonder how you ever made it not doing it (if that makes sense!) ↑ |
yeah that makes sense. yeah you might be right Randi i might return to work to collect the hours and have another. lol how is kaden?? poor guy poke again and soon chloes turn. ↑ |
I wrote this in the other post you asked me in.
Name: Randi • Date: 06/06/2007 23:49:32
Sorry I didn't read that. He is good. His ear was bleeding today... I think I said they were bothering him...well he picked one and it bled. Dr D said it's probably teething, but gave me a steroid to put on. He has been so grumpy after his needles though...big lumps : ( What did you guys do today? ↑ |
randi we did nothing today but parent and tot group. i was invited to a tupperwear party but that sucks. and she was cranky to boot!! ↑ |
What are you doing tomorrow? ↑ |
comming into town have to get things i forgot the other day. and you? starbucks meeting?? that is too bad about kadens ear maybe he'll have some teeth soon maybe that is why chloe is cranky today! ↑ |

those basterds pushing my buttons like that i was about to sell off my animals because it was one less pain in the ass to deal with and she is way more cute than the animals. LOL ↑ |
