Hello all,

Aren't there any more working mamas out there? I hope this board picks up. I think its a great idea for us working moms to have a place to post/discuss. Anyway, I am new to these boards so here goes. I am married with two beautiful daughters Leslie(9) and Lily(13 months) and I work full time

and yes I wish I didn't have to but I do. On top of all that I am in school for my MBA degree and I do volunteer work when I can. Needless to say I am one busy girl. I hope this board catches on. I would be really excited to be able to discuss here.

Thanks

I'm Didi. I have two wacky DSs, Nathan (almost 6) and Aaron (3). I love being a mom and also love having a career. It's a little hectic, but so far we're making it work. I'm also hoping this board catches on - it's great to have support.

Hi I'm Marian, I am the mother to a beautiful 8 month old daughter Evangaline Jade "Eva" and step-mom to 8 year old twin girls Rhonda and Ashley. I want more than anything to be a SAHM (I would settle for working PT). Unfortunately that's not an option. DH job is not very reliable and he only works a few months out of the year. I really wish he could get a job with the Union then we'd be good and I could quit my job. A girl can dream...
