my son don't want me to go to work...

My son woke up this morning while I was getting ready for work. He asked me "Mommy where are you going?" I said that I am getting ready for work and that I will see him later. He said "Mommy, don't work." I told him that I need to go work to have money because we need money to buy a lot of things like his and his sister's diapers, milk, clothes, food and the list could go on. He said "Daddy work only" (he meant, he only wants his Daddy to work and not Mommy) I just told him that I will bring a treat for him when I return from work.

Children just don't understand that parents need to work to earn money. I would love to stay home too but I would love it even more if I earn something while I do that. Wouldn't it be awesome if we get paid while we take care of our little ones? I love spending time with them but we just cannot afford to do that for now..or at least that has just not happened yet...

... so meantime I need to go to work and earn some money.

whew!
