I certainly don't take it for granted - and I could not have done it without my wonderful husband, and our *very* supportive parents! We considered it an 'investment' in our family, and it has already paid off, for me at least. <br /><br /><br />There were of course many moments (and I mean MANY) when I wished I could kiss them goodbye and hand them over to someone ELSE for the day. And so many times when I longed for a Project, with Benchmarks, and Reports, and all that fun stuff. Or impromptu brainstorming sessions. Or watching a campaign really WORK! Not to mention all the fun people I used to work with.<br /><br /><br />But you just can't have it all. So I am doing my best to concentrate of finding the best in what I've got at the moment, which right now, is some solid computer time! :)Lisa Mackayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11551992179195626629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-702422346863439814.post-61608227626313385122013-09-15T19:38:28.112-06:002013-09-15T19:38:28.112-06:00You are one lucky mother to be able to spend 2 yea...You are one lucky mother to be able to spend 2 years with your boys full time...I know it was not always easy. I envy you, even if I am not the most patient person in the world and like my job a lot recently I have been having this burning desire to stay home with the kids, walk them to school/daycare, walk to them the park, play date, after school class...Now enjoy the "quite" and the good memories.Lisa Mackayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11551992179195626629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-702422346863439814.post-34608709152014610422013-09-14T19:42:06.108-06:002013-09-14T19:42:06.108-06:00What is with summers that they just zip by so fast...What is with summers that they just zip by so fast.

Made me feel a little guilty about wanting to be a stay at home mom now that both my kids are in school full day! ;) Lisa, whatever you decide to do, you'll be a star and people will always be the better for having known you.

I know next year if they are both in school all day it is going to feel really, really strange. But I admit I'm going to like a bit of solitude.Lisa Mackayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11551992179195626629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-702422346863439814.post-6134833538684788672013-09-12T18:33:09.677-06:002013-09-12T18:33:09.677-06:00such a great summer post.
