It is possible that you may have to reevaluate your families needs and your ability to meet them while doing this.

For me, this is the best fit for now. I would love to be able to pick my kids up from school and just go to the park/theater on a random Wednesday, but in order to do that I have to be gone 4 days a week; overnight (24/48 hour schedule). Those are my options as it stands....
I am going back for my Masters in Special Ed and plan to begin working in the classroom in the next year or so...my hubby picks up all the slack, takes the kids all over the place so they don't miss out. I just want to be able to be the one to do it. He does do daycare for me so that I can participate too, but...I don't know...the older they get, the more I want to do with them!
