Last year I was stressed beyond about getting my holiday orders done and shipped in time and knowing that I was neglecting my motherly and wifely duties as well. I had gone back and forth in my head about it for a while. I knew it was more important to give 100% of me to my family but, now I just wanna cry because I feel like I can't give them all of things they want and NEED for that manner.
If I was working outside the home I would make enough to pay for childcare and well, since I have 3 kids it would be really expensive so, it just made more sense for me to work from home but, what most people don't understand is that when you go to work outside the home you are not babysitting, making meals, cleaning the house, doing laundry, driving people here and there and helping with homework. You actually have time to focus on your job that pays your bills when you work outside the home.
I had to focus on not only being the CEO of my job but, the CEO of a household as well. What's a mom to do in this situation? Struggle financially to give your family what they need emotionally or struggle emotionally to give your family what they need financially? I have to give up one to have the other no matter what decision I make. I'm just not sure if I made the right decision.
