Figure I should identify myself in case anyone has a race car lacking a driver. Sorry, Amber – that ‘anonymous’ was me…too quick on the submit button.

Put it in your kids' baby books so they can read it when they're parents! I spent the first 3.5 years of my oldest son's life in an office, and he in daycare, and it breaks my heart to think of what I missed out on. When my 2nd son was born, I got to stay home with both of them for a year or so, and although I was always exhausted, it was wonderful...I went back to work, but for a flexible and fun company - sometimes I work from home, sometimes kids go with me to the office... it's been great. BUT - marketing is a looong way from what I really wanna be when I grow up. Race car driver. Maybe when they're in college. Great post.

Working from home can be a nightmare, but I love spending time with the kids so somehow it is all worth it. Like you, I just played around and ended up with a career in Marketing.
