We are a family of 5 (3 kids under age 6) Oldest started Kindergarten this year. We moved here two years ago from NY (leaving all family/support behind) We have been very involved w/ church,soccer etc and it just isn't the same as our "old life" KWIM? However, hubby went from working nights-sleeping days (4 a week) to 12hr days (4) so I am home M,T,W he has the kids on Th, Fri, and a few hours on saturday. This has been a win/ win because daycare is just expensive for three kids/ plus trying to juggle it all was not worth it. PT works awesome for our family.
Here is the question: DH has been offered a position back in NY. We would like to move back. We miss our close community, the seasons, land and FAMILY. Believe it or not, our 6 year has been asking us to move back to NY. We were just there on vacation for 20 days and this morning he said he was saving his money for us to buy a house by "mee maw" (NY-grandma) However, he would most likely be on nights again and I would have to work full time (it is more expensive there) Would it be worth it to you???

that is a hard question for me to answer cause in a year or so we are moving 16 hours away from all of dh's family and mine..except my sister... we are actually looking foward to it.. the job he is going to school for will bring in double what he's making now so when we move i will not have to get a job..unless i want too.. but once we get down there and get settled in i might try to get a job at the school where my kiddo's will go to school so that way i will be working while they are in school and off when they are and won't need a babysitter..
so really you need to think what would be best for you and your family.. staying where you are at or move back to NY..
How does your DH feel about it?
