Hello...I am a stay at home mom.

I am a stay at home mom in South Dakota. I am new to myLot and have so much to discuss that I'm not sure where to begin. I could tell so much about being a at home mom--the guilt, the stress, the fun, the total enjoyment. The reaction I've often received when I state I'm a stay at home mom is, "It must be nice" (please note a very sarcastic tone to this comment as they say it). The fact is that yes it is very nice, but I feel almost every mom could be a stay at home mom if she so chooses. It takes sacrifice and patience, but it is possible. I often think some working moms work because they know they couldn't handle being home all day with their children. I've stayed home for over 9 years now and wouldn't have it any other way.

Welcome to mylot, it so nice to meet someone just like me. I could not imagine letting someone else raise my kids. I have 4 of my own and 2 step children. My youngest is 12 and my oldest is 21. I think they need me now just as much as they needed me when they were babies. I'll add you to my friend list. If you need any help getting started with MyLot let me know. Hope to hear from you soon.
