As a working Mom of three daughters, I sometimes had doubts, and wondered if I was doing the right thing by working outside of the home.   Besides the monetary necessity, I  think I needed lots of outside  interaction and intellectual  stimulation in my life.  I was involved in my career in major ways, but I also stayed very busy with activities that were happening in the lives of my children.  Running here and running there.    It was a busy  time of my life and I used to call it  &quot;Organized Chaos&quot;.Now I have three grown beautiful kids with children of their own, and my former doubts have melted away into satisfaction and happiness.   I am the first one they call if they have a work crisis.  LOL!   And they also dial me when their babies are sick or they are planning a party and need some creative  ideas.  It is the best of all worlds for me and if I could have a &quot;do over&quot;  this is one aspect of my life that I  would not change.
Thanks again for your post. .]]></description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Melissa,</p><p>Love your post!  I think so many of us can identify with your thoughts and reflections.
