Great post! I love your blog, new follower:)
You have me kind of nervous though! I am wanting to apply to law schools and have always dreamed of staying at home oneday when I have a family. But when you're in school and finishing up undergrad having a family isn't always the first thing thats right around the corner. Oh how, I just wish it was easier. Ha:)

Wow, could not agree with you more. I am in my se...

Wow, could not agree with you more. I am in my second year of practice and wonder the same things...

Maybe one day I can be a SAHM and leave the law behind, too!

Hey Melissa! I just found your blog through the Breakfast At Toast blog and I feel like this post of yours is exactly something I could/would write on my own blog :) I'm 3 weeks in to my new job as a SAHM - and I feel just as you do - relieved to be doing what I truly love, blessed to be in the fortunate position to be able to stay home and grateful to live in an era where women can CHOOSE what is best for them and their families in this regard :) Good luck with it all - I'm glad you seem to be enjoying it as much as I am :) Stop on by my blog if you get a chance: www.themommystop.com

Those pics of MP are still killing me...such the man. I know when I do go back to work I will have such high expectations for the position...not much beats this SAHM gig in my mind!

I love how you invoke the name of Neiman Marcus & Nordstrom. Ha. I always say that there are a number of careers in which I could be very happy. My mantra has always been two-fold- I am not defined by my career and motherhood does not define me, I define it. Using those two thoughts, I try to remember that I am more than just an attorney or M & Em's mom, I am the sum of ALL my parts. Keeps me somewhat balanced.

Fantastic post! I'm due in July and really feel being a SAHM is the route I want to take. I have been been in my field for 11 years now (plus grad school), but it is time for a change!

Amen and amen. Though I was only in my "career" for 3 years before donning the SAHM status, it was a long 3 years. Knowing all along that my heart only desired to be at home with my yet unborn children... it was pretty miserable at times. I had to pray for a lot of patience while I waited to get to this point. But now, it's like a big exhale. No more Mondays. It's an amazing thing.
