I am finally taking the leap and quitting Creative. You read that right, the woman who swore she could never be a "stay home Mom" is going to "stay home" and be a MOM!!!
What prompted the change? Well, being a Mom did. I sit at work and watch Kollin play all day. He plays with all of his toys and looks for mommy for reassurance. The more I work, the less I am able to spend time with him. It has been a rough couple of months trying to be a good mom and a good worker. Finally, I got so stressed out when he rolled over at work. I realized, i can be a good Mom or a good worker. I cannot do both well. Kollin is more important to me so....let the real work begin!!
This Friday, the 25th of February, is my last Day. I am a little nervous about the change but I know it will be better for our family in the long run. Here goes nothing!
Thanks sweetie for being so willing to do this. Ken has been super supportive through out this change. He sees the value in having Kollin my full time job but also realizes that I have to want this or I will not enjoy it as much. He sat down with me right after Kollin was born and we did the finances so I could see our options when/if I made this decision. I am so lucky to have him in my life. Thank you sweetie!!!
Way to go Angie. I can't say it's easy by any means. I've actually had a hard time with "stay at home Mom" motherhood, but it is rewarding and I wouldn't have it any other way. I know there are many who can't be at home, but we are so blessed because our finances allow me to be. If you ever need someone to complain, talk, scream, cry, laugh, whatever with, let me know. :o)
ReplyDeleteKollin is adorable! I love following your blog. Thanks.
Congratulations Angie. Let me know if you want to go to lunch sometime to get out of the house.
