I started "working" for Ross when I left Big Brothers Big Sisters in 2008 after Quinn was born. It was not a lot at first, since at the time his business wasn't exactly bustling. But as time grew, a-bustlin' we have become and now I can say I do a lot of actual work. I'm mostly considered his office manager, but there is a lot that goes into that, and in all reality, he's not the best at job delineation. We're working on that.
On top of all that, I also work about 30 hours a week for Ross' cousin Pamela. She and her husband own their own business(es) and I am the office adminstrator there as well. Its very different from anything I've ever done, but its a good job with great flexibility, and in this economy, I can't complain!
Being a working mom is so much harder than I ever thought. By the end of the day I'm practically running into Quinn's school to get him, but I also know that he is being taken care of well, has friends, learns a lot, and (usually) is having fun. I also get the luxury of keeping him home some Thursdays when I don't work. So I get a bit of Stay-at-Homeness too!
And I will admit, there are some days that dropping him off at school causes me undue joy. One perk of being a working mom, right?
