I am home because I am devoted to loving and caring for my kids better than anyone else can. Hands down. They get on my last nerve some days. But I want them no where else. I feel like a caged animal some days. But I treasure the freedom of answering only to us as a family. I wonder most days how I will deal with the monotony. But I know they won't need me for forever...this stay at home business will produce fruit that I can not see right now and that's just plain tough. But Lord willing, one day my children will "rise up and call me blessed" and know that I poured every ounce of my being into them, and thru that, they will see more of Christ! Being home ain't no joke!

When I was pregnant with Connor, I had 4 other coworkers pregnant too. One of us went back to work. I see the others regularly and they all feel the same tug. I'm not sure it will ever go away. elizaforshizahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10373212187492384951noreply@blogger.com
