I just wanted to say that when I'm a mom, I want to be just like you. I loved when you wrote "But I'm also ready to start my new role - of a working mother. I will wear the title with pride ".<BR/>I'm pretty sure I will feel the same way, while it can't be easy to send Carson to daycare, I love how realistic you are. <BR/>I have a friend (we were VERY close) once try to drill into my head that women who work should not have kids, period. We are no longer friends. Anyways, I'm rambling and just wanted to let you know how much I admire you. Carson is a lucky little man.<BR/><BR/>AnneAnnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04818129339628645284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26051722.post-52249966844839762082007-10-04T13:58:00.000-04:002007-10-04T13:58:00.000-04:00Hi ladies!

I want so badly to take care of her myself, you know? But I also want to have a career. Sigh!<BR/><BR/>Good luck with the interviews. Out of curiosity, how much does daycare cost in Ottawa? In TO, it's about $1600 a month.
