I love my job but my life never revolved around it and I worked because one income was not enough. I do consider myself extremely lucky that I was able to stay at home with my children when they were young. I only started working after they were in their later years in school and didn't need me to help with everything. I miss those days when they were small. Now my grandchild is little and I have the luxury of working from home so we spend most days together because the parents are not together so my daughter works. I offered for her to stay at home with my grandchild but my daughter is not one that wants to depend on us for everything. She is a great mom. My grandchild does go to a Christian daycare 3 days a week so that there is interaction with children the same age. We do feel that is important too.
