I’ve always wanted to have a magical candy store. I sort of want to live above it in a quaint, but magically large, apartment.

I love your theme this weekend! I like the shoes in the picture too…Your question to us, the readers, is so loaded that I could write two pages on my answer:) I was a SAHM for 4 years and loved it. It was great to be with my daughter and really nice to be preggo for my son with out having to worry about working! Now that I work in and out of our home I really enjoy it. My family will always come first, but I love using my talents God has given me to help others. I am blessed to be able to bring my kiddos to the office and work around my husband’s schedule. Our children have only had to go to a babysitter a few times in the past year. I guess you can say that my current job is being molded into my dream job!

I currently work as a school social worker so I get the perk of having longer breaks throughout the year. Right now, it’s the next best thing to working parttime. In my dream world, I would love to be at home with my daughter and pursue my dream of photography parttime. That would be so great!

Right now, I’m living my dream – SAHM. In a few years, I’d love a 3-4 days a week job in an office, where I only work during my kids school hours. Otherwise, I’d love to be a writer and work from home (but I’m a terrible writer! you said ‘dream’, right?!). Fun theme this weekend.

I love my current working situation – I work from home and get to stay here with my daughter who goes to the in-home daycare next door for about 6 hours every Thursday. I do sometimes miss the daily interaction with other adults and I do hope to grow my business and add a few more services but I wouldn’t trade all those moments I’ve gotten to enjoy with Sugar for anything!

I’m living my ideal working situation and that is working from home however it would be truly ideal if hubs were with me and we were traveling while running the business.

I have to admit (and don’t mean to brag), but I think I already have the ideal working situation. Though its hard to balance freelance work and family at times, I am extremely blessed to work at home, even with my kids being in school. There are times I miss the adult interaction during the day, but I totally love what I do and who can beat working in their jammies!!??

I love working from home! However, working from home with one or more (depending at what time of day it is) children to supervise, in addition to trying to work, is the hardest job I’ve ever had to do. Especially as my work load picks up, I would like to have a highschool or college student come over a few afternoons a weeks to help out and play with the kids.

With that, I really enjoy what I’m doing – running Root & Sprout, freelancing and writing a book!

If I have to “work” full time outside the home, I choose the sales job I have now because my company is family friendly and my hours are flexible. My dream is to spend more time with my children and work from home as a successful children’s book author.
