It is so nice hearing some from everyone that has/will posted. It's so true that everyone has done things that no one else has, because even if it's the same occupation, no one does theirs like you. If you were/are a stay at home woman/mom like my mom was/is, you have been a woman of all trades, and then some. You also may or may not have gained monetary rewards as a stay at home person, but I see looking back when raising my son at home that my rewards have been greater than anything else I have ever done.
