Why I Love Being A Work-At-Home Mom

I love being a work-at-home mom because:

I get to be with my kids from the time they wake up until they go to sleep at night;

I didn’t miss out on their first steps or their first words;

I can drop work any time and take my kids to the park without having to ask anyone’s permission;

My kids get to see me work and see that I get joy and stimulation out of being productive. I like to believe I’m a good role model for them;

My daughter can see that you can have it all: a career, a family and happiness;

As I write this at 6:00 am, I can look over at the video baby monitor and see my sweet baby sleeping happily;

I get to decide when I go to work, when I eat and when I take a break, and no one’s watching a clock but me;

When I go out for a meeting, I can also squeeze in some personal errands and not have to worry about a boss disapproving of my long lunch;

I can wear my pajamas all day long and no one ever has to know!

I no longer have to sit in a car to commute, which automatically gives me an extra two hours per day, which adds up to a whopping extra 21 days in my year!

My work is my home, and my home is my work, which can be a benefit for the write-off’s alone! (Ask your accountant.)
