A Happy Stay-at-Home Momma

 
Dr. Laura, 

After recently reading a blog about dropping their baby off at day care, I was, once again, shaking my head at this generation of disillusioned females I find myself amongst. The author wrote, "I want you to know that I am a better mommy because I work. I am not stay-at-home mom material." My immediate thought was, if you know you're not "stay-at-home mom material" then why on earth would you ever consider having children!? I just can't fathom bringing a sweet, precious life into this world with the intentions of immediately institutionalizing the little sweet pea shortly after birth! Am I just part of a dying breed of women that still sees the value and pure fulfillment of staying home with my children to nurture them, love them, and ensure they develop into responsible adults that can contribute positively to society someday!? I would never ever trust an institution to do that for me. 

Dr. Laura, I truly do applaud you for your continued support and encouragement of stay-at-home parenting. Please keep fighting the good fight! I don't know how you don't scream at these brain-washed women who happily drop their kids off at day care. I hope for opportunities to encourage others that I come across in my life to raise their kids themselves. 

Sincerely, 

A happy stay-at-home momma,

Leslie 

P.S. Below is a photo of my son who I LOVE to stay home with! He just celebrated his first birthday - what an amazing year it has been!!
