“To Work or Not To Work… There is No Question” (Nancy’s Blog)
I’ve never wanted to be a stay-at-home mom. It’s not about economics and needing a paycheck, for me it’s about fulfillment and needing adult conversation. Children are a blessing. But I could never measure my days by loads of laundry folded and spots of spilled juice mopped up. It’s not that I think stay-at-home mothers don’t work – they do!
