I've been contemplating not going back to work. I really enjoy being home with Sophie but I don't know if we can afford for me not to work. Yeah-I don't make much but it's nice to have that little bit of money to help out. Plus-when I finish my masters, the loan payments will be starting. I'm considering it though...thinking of taking the first year of her life off to be with her and be a part of each milestone. I don't want to miss anything. She's so precious to me and it scared me to think of leaving her with someone else. Sigh...
