I know there are few many times when I wanted to give up my job and just be a full-time mother. But apart from the fact that the moolah every payday helps settle the cookie bills, the 8 hours I spend working give me the right amount of space and time to recollect my thoughts,

 

to prep myself for more parenting challenges,

thur

to re-energize myself and most of all,

 

to terribly miss my son.

 

So that by the time I get home, I am (again) all ready for the endless “Mama, pleeease…,” the demanding “Mama -want this” or the very loudĀ  “Mamaaaaaa.”

 

So today, I’m thankful for my job.
