New adventures...

Driving to work this morning with Mo, I realized that this stage of my life is almost over. Soon I am going to be a full time, stay at home mom. Since I had kids, I had always thought that was a long term goal of ours (it was one reason I was so supportive of moving here and leaving a place I loved so much). I always hoped we would get to a place financially that we could do it and not have to terribly cramp our lifestyle and while we will be making cuts and spending more frugally, I don't think it will (especially with the addition of another baby and new car). Today as I am working on things winding up the school year, I realize there is a part of me that will miss work and my identity as someone other than E's or Mo's mom or Ed's wife. I know there will be ways for me to keep my self-identity but worry that the upcoming 6 months or so are going to be too busy for me to do that.
