Does Rebecca work?

If you know me, you probably know that I went to the University of Buffalo for six years and really enjoyed my time there. I received my bachelor’s degree in psychology. My counselor at UB steered me to the social work master’s program and I absolutely loved the program.

I graduated with my master’s degree from UB and then threw myself into my work. I was counseling families and really loving my clients and my work. I became a supervisor and enjoyed that even more.

I next wanted to interview for another position, and then I gave birth to our first child. I looked into his eyes and proceeded to beg my husband to let me stay home with him and not return to work.

That was a lot of pressure that I put on my husband to be our only income.

In my defense, most of my paycheck would have gone towards day care anyway. I stayed home with our children and absolutely loved being a stay-at-home mom. I can never repay Seth for those years home with our kids. I am still technically home when our kids are home.

Having three young children was wonderful and also stressful. I had overwhelmed feelings a lot and found that pouring them onto paper was making me feel better. Writing became my greatest coping skill.

When my husband would read what I was writing, he told me I had a mommy blog. I asked him what a blog is? This is where my new age career began. The moment that Seth told me that all my writing was a mommy blog is where my new world of work began.

Tune in tonight to hear the rest of the story.
