I find motherhood pure bliss.

The teacher warned a boy that if he didn’t behave he would get a kick to the butt.”I had my first child in November, and it has shaken my perspective on work. Before I had the baby, I planned to stay in my stable but stymied job for another year and start looking for new work if my boss didn’t announce her retirement by the year’s end.

And the excellent daycare we picked out would be farther from another job .I struggle with increased depression and anxiety since having the baby, and I am a little apprehensive that the stress of a new job could make it worse. On the other hand, if I’m going to have to be away from the baby, I want it to be time spent learning, growing, and earning as much money as possible while doing something challenging.
