I work. But I WISH I could be a good SAHM. My mom was, and I would love nothing more in the world than to be exactly like her. But I'm not. My kids drive me crazy if I'm with them 24/7, and I truly think that I have to work to keep my sanity. When dealing with my children, I find myself thinking..."What would Mom do?" I always remember her having SO much patience. I don't, and I feel like a worse mother because of it.
