To all MTBs thinking of quiting jobs and be SAHM, Cassey, Caramelle, LFB
I have stopped work for some time now. Sharing my experience, I think initially it's tough to adjust to no income after years of having $ of your own and financial independence, self-sufficiency. Suddenly, you are getting an allowance fr hubby and signing on his credit cards or worse, sign your own credit card and pay with his bank account
(this is quite good if u don't want him to kn what u bought..
hehehe...)
At first, it was difficult for me to find something worthy to do, and felt quite bored, even resented being at home. Later got used to it, and I think it's a blessing to have time for yourself and family. Society these days defines success on Careers etc, but really it's having a happy family. If your hubby is happy to have you at home, and you are at peace with yourself at home, all the better.
I feel that I have learnt more about priorities in life and even understand better about submission of a wife to a loving husband.
I think our kids will also benefit so much from our personal love and care and teaching them every step of the way about life.
Look on the bright side, you now can go for high tea, or shop with your babies and enjoy being pampered by hubby instead of facing a grouchy boss looking for more more more from us... hehehe
Hope this encourages someone out there
