You have an more important job than me. Being a stay at home mom is a hard job. My mom did that. She worked hard each day, with no days off. We ate a home everyday. We hardly ever ate out. We might not had extravagant meals all the time, but we ate good. Two incomes is nice, but depending on schedules, you might have to have a daycare watch your kids when your not able too, and that's expensive. So one income just goes to that. Me, I believe it's better to have a "domestic goddess" at home. :)
