I also babysit at home just so I can be a SAHM. Never thought of the WFHM in my last comments. I really enjoy watching these kids. My house does get a little crazy at times, like the day school is out. My kids and the kids that I watch are all pretty good so I can still do everything else a SAHM has to do.
Good luck with the business! vbmenu_register("postmenu_9941", true); |

 Children: 3 kids, 1 boy 7, boy girl twins 5 | Re: Stay at home or working parents? | | I am a working mom. I have always worked other than maternity leave. I find it makes me a more patient mom being away from my kids part of the day. I think it's a choice every parent/family needs to make for themselves. If I could financially stay home, I would probably choose to work part time - however my husband was recently laid off so right now he is the stay at home parent! |

Even if it fails I'll be happy because I tried. One thing I made sure of is that we are going to do some good also. We have one thing we are doing for the troops and another for children both of which will be completely not for profit. That makes it even more important to me. I don't wanna jinx it though.

Children: Nichole | Re: Stay at home or working parents? | | I would be proud as well. I have a brother serving in Germany right now with the Army and my little brother was killed in Iraq in 2005. So it hits home. My dad is also a retired Marine |

My dad is also a retired Marine | My brother served in Afghanistan in 2005 and was injured in a training excersize after he got back. He is about to be medically discharged. I am so sorry about your little brother. I realize everyday that my family is one of the lucky ones.
