Hi ladies, my name is Shatema and I am a mother to two little Divas 6 and 2, and they are my world. I also just got married to my best friend on 10/07/2006.I am not officially a SAHM yet but will be turning in my keys and giving my notice to stay home by July 1st. The past 2 months I have really been going thru with my 2yr old and her daycare, she is really unhappy and one of the teachers have hit her before. I havent been able to focus her at work ever since and now that my hubby is in the position to financially carry the load I would much rather stay home than go thru this mess with daycare after daycare. I am gonna need your help though ladies, I am so used to carrying my own load (as I was a single mom for quite some time)and not having any help, so im trying to let go but its hard, that and the fact that im like okay I finally have some help, why would I want to go back to one income. Ladies how do you do it, I still want to be able to buy a house and go on vacations. I am looking forward to meeting you all and swapping stories, ideas,and so forth.

Thank Ana that did help, I know just being able to stay home is rewarding, but at the same time I dont want to leave the pressure on my DH. I mean his is fine with it (actually it was him who suggested that I quit) but I dont want to leave the burden all on him too. I know you ladies will help me thru it. Thanks again

I promise the guilt of the burden will go away.

I can't believe that a day care provider hit your child!
