To Mom, for staying at home with my siblings and me
And to Daddy, for supporting Mama and making it possible for her to stay at home with her kids
T he year was 2008, and I desperately wanted to quit my job to stay home with our newborn daughter. My own mother made a career out of motherhood, and although she worked part-time until I was close to two years old, I dont remember a time when she wasnt a stay-at-home mom. I aspired for my children to know the same. But the 2008 economic crisis coincided with the birth of our first child. Because my husband, Will, was in school and working part-time at our church and our house had sunk underwater and was not selling, we were relying heavily on my income and the health insurance from my job. I had no other choice but to return to full-time work outside of the home when our daughter was just six weeks old.
Ill never forget leaving my newborn sitting in her swing the first morning I went back to work. Sound asleep after falling into a nursing coma, she was blissfully unaware that this would be the first time we would be separated since God began weaving her together in my womb. My trusted friend Lexie came over to babysit, so I knew my sweet girl was in good hands. Still, saying good-bye to my baby tore at my heart.
I worked full-time outside of the home until my daughter was six months old, and from then until she was nine months old, I attended missionary training classes while she stayed in a daycare-like setting. I know my time as a full-time, work-outside-the-home mom was a blip on the radar compared to so many mothers who desire to stay home with their children, but it still wasnt easy. I could have wallowed in self-pity for missing out on most of my daughters first year of life, but I dont look back with regret; instead, I think about all God taught meand how He provided for our family.
MORE THAN JUST MAKING IT
When our daughter was thirteen months old, we moved across the continentfrom the Vancouver area of British Columbia, Canada, to the town in North Carolina where I grew up. Our family was struggling through some difficult circumstances, and we wanted to be close to my parents. My husband accepted a low-paying job as a high school Spanish teacher, and we decided to try making our pennies stretch enough for me to be a stay-at-home mom. At the time, we didnt even own a vehicle, but we were determined to make it work.
