		<description>Hi there. I&#039;m the Childproofer&#039;s daughter. Just came across this site while searching around and saw my father left a message! I was inspired to do the same. I just hit my 30&#039;s and am settling down to start a family myself soon. I really like your site and look forward to reading your blog. I&#039;m striving towards building a successful creative business from home, and be a SAHM at the same time. As overwhelming as it seems, I&#039;m really looking forward to it. Thanks for the inspiration! Can&#039;t wait to read more. :)</description>

		<description>Sara -- hold your head high! And enjoy it. So many of us have considered it, or wanted to do it and haven&#039;t been able to . . . and, just think, when you&#039;re ready to come back, or decide to come back (you know, when the kids go to college) you will have rich experiences and memories to bring with you. I wish you the best -- keep on blogging!</description>

		<description>Wow--good for you for listening to your heart and making such a big and brave decision. I am more an WAH-part-time-SAHM than a full-time-SAHM these days, but still look back on my fully-SAHM days with nostalgia. It was a great and worthy time in my and my kids&#039; lives...and I have no regrets. I believe that you won&#039;t, either. Remember, you can always change things up again if something isn&#039;t working for you.</description>

		<description>Congratulations! I&#039;m a little behind in my blog reading.  I have to echo the others and say that it&#039;s about what&#039;s best for you and your family.  Also, life is fluid and just because you decide to something now, doesn&#039;t mean that you have to do it 6 months from now.</description>

		<description>BIG NEWS! I kinda thought you might go that way. It&#039;s the right thing for you and your fam right now. That&#039;s what all of us moms (SAHM or WOHM) should aim for. Glad you&#039;re keeping up the blog and I&#039;m sure you&#039;ll have lots of new, interesting fodder.

		<description>When I heard you had big news I immediately thoguth- Baby nubmer two is on the way. This is great new too, though. Good for you!

I remember when I thought I&#039;d never give up the consulting practice I had built--that was before I actually had kids, of course. Everythign shifts after that.

I look forward to reading about your new adventures.</description>

		<description>GHD took the words right out of my mouth.

&quot;Oh, Iâ€™m so excited for you! Itâ€™s a difficult decision to have to make and somewhat of an adjustment, but I hope you find your grove in SAHMommyhod. I had my reservations with it at first, but things couldnâ€™t be better a year later.&quot;

To me being a SAHM is both challenging and exhilarating.  Enjoy it and make the most of it.  It&#039;s by far been the best time of my life!</description>
