Stay At Home Moms

oh i totally hear you...i had 2 daughters 4 years apart, so i was a stay home mom for a good 10 years before i started working part time... my best advice is to get a hobby and work on it when the kids are napping or resting (even if they are older, you can still have a 'quiet time' for an hour or so in the afternoon...when my kids where little, beside crafting, i sold avon...it was good at the time and another plus, it gets better! my girls are 11 and almost 15 (now we are dealing with other problems!!)

i do not have a quick fix for your question, but as a working husband doing a 10 hour day i can say i really appriciate the work my wife puts in on the house, children and cooking. she is my star and should get paid more than me.
