One of the best things that has come with the opportunity to stay home is permission to be tired! When I was working...I was T-I-R-E-D....no doubt about it...but no matter how tired I was if I skipped a beat even for one second I was behind on something. Now that I stay home if I am tired I can sleep an extra hour...if like last night...it takes TWO extra hours to get the kids to sleep and I don't get into bed until midnight it is not the end of the world. If the house is not perfect and the laundry is still stacked on the couch when I crawl into bed at night it is okay because I can do it tomorrow. Don't get me wrong staying home is not all glitz and glam (matter of fact most days it is far from it) but it certainly does have its little perks and I never thought I would be so thankful for the opportunity to just be tired!
