Yes, I am. I have been for nearly 8 years. It's extremely challenging at times, but very rewarding. I have a 6 1/2, 5 1/2 & 10 month old and due with #4 in March. I consider it to be a blessing for our family. :)

I am. I've been out of work since last year because I had a bad ankle that resulted in surgery then got pregnant and still couldn't return, my fiance really don't want me to work but I've always been a worker and miss it at times! I may eventually look into something part time just to get me out of the house

I work full time now but my husband really wants me to be able to be a stay at home mom (just found out we're pregnant with our first). I would count it a huge blessing if I am able to...i think it's really looked down upon now a days. That's sad. I hate the idea of someone else raising my child...what's the point of that? No judgment on working moms though. That's difficult too and I applaud you.
