Heads Or Tails...


This week's theme/prompt is:
TAILS - Tell about your job (Or one you've had)


Well, my current job, is probably the most rewarding and hardest one I've ever had. I've had many jobs, telemarketer, sales person, barista, manager, studio hand, but being a Stay At Home Mom is by far the best.

I'm allowed to raise my children, be in their lives, educate them, have fun with them, clean them, feed them, and on top of all that, do daily household duties like laundry, dusting, cleaning, cooking etc. etc. etc. And I get to do all this FOR FREE! No Pay! However, money isn't the only way to get paid when your a Stay At Home Mom, I get paid with appreciation, love, smilies and giggles and that is worth more than any hourly wage or salary I could ever make.

I like your pay scale. I loved being a mom at home and I also homeschooled which I really enjoyed

I absolutely agree that being a SAHM is the best best best. Hardest job ever. Least pay in terms of money, but so many benefits. I got to be that one year. I miss it. Treasure every minutes.

Being a stay at home mom is probably the most important job there is, also one of the most difficult at times, and yes, the most rewarding, I'm sure. I've never had children, so can only guess by what I've seen around me.

Thanks for visiting my blog for HoT.
