I'm much happier being a stay at home wife/mom now. It takes some getting used to, but I enjoy being home and taking care of my family. I did it while working, but it wasn't the same. I was stressed. It wasn't worth it.
It's hard for families to keep a roof over their heads on one salary as well, but that was intentional. Congratulations for being able to stay home. I'm glad the women in my family managed to stay home too, and went back to work later. Three of them were scout leaders, and two of the men were scout leader and little league coach. I'm proud of them.
