not enought time!

Just wondering what does your husband do as you have said that he sees your kids at all times. Well, we really need to sacrifice or sometimes give up of something to achieve our goals in life. Just put in your mind that what you do is not for your benefit alone but it is for the future of your family as a whole. Don't get into your emotions. You just need to explain to your kids what you are doing are for them and soon you will be with them in about 3 more years to wait. Not too long to wait my friend. Give your best and soon you will reap all the fruits of what you have planted. Smile and always be happy! Go for the goal! Keep it up!

Hi there... I know how you feel. Its really disturbing that you know that you want to be a part of your daughters life as they grow, but situations hold you back from doing it. You are right, our children will not be young for the rest of their lives... Once they are through with it, its done. we can't make any rewinds for that. But in your case, you have to work for their future. And the fact that you are thinking about the situation now, makes me see that you are guilty for not being there and that you love them so much.
How long will your husband can't work. If 2-3 months then you could wait until he is ok... and take time with your kids. They wont grow that much in 6 months. I think you have a valid reason for that.
Me too, i want to be a part of my kids life every now and then, so i decided to work at home. I don't know if it is for you, but you can try. Though I think it will take a month or two just before you can earn. You can talk to your husband and ask him to help you. There are lots of good online job which can help you survive. At least you know you will be just missing 2-3 months and if you can find a good source of income, then you could work at home with your kids.
i am telling you this, because I am into it. for me, its working out fine. I have time for my kids and earning at the same time. One more thing, you should finish your study, for you and your family. Just manage your time, and find a good source of income where you can stay at home.
For the mean time, you can spend quality time with them during Sunday or your day-off... and don't forget to explain to them the reason why they dont see you that much. Let them feel you're still there.

Maybe you can put your college on hold. If you can stay home for the next two years, you won't be missing out on your little ones growing up. Then once they start school, why don't you then go back and get your degree. You can take classes when they are in school. It will then be the same as it is now, but at least you will be gone for part of the time when they are gone.

Also, what does your husband do? Does he work days?
