Once upon a time...

There once was a mom who had four daughters and enjoyed staying at home for 12 grateful years. One day that mom realized that life is expensive and maybe she should contribute financially to the home,so with God's help (more like complete intervention) she landed a job in her former field of finance and now is attempting to learn how to navigate home/kids/family/life while pursuing and growing a potentially promising career. Hard. Interestingly, her sister, who enjoyed a grateful 17 years at home with her children, found herself in a similar situation, waking up one day to find herself at a desk Monday thru Friday from 8-5pm. She will be chronicling (yes i spellchecked chronicling and that is how you spell it even though it looks wierd) this transition here and this mom of GEMS will be following along to learn her tips/tricks/highs/lows of navigating this new normal. Join us. The end.
