“I have a 10 month old and I’ve been back to work for 4 months now. I make very good money for a low stress/enjoyable job (I recently went part-time).

I personally identify with this topic – I work full time, but am lucky enough to have my parents to look after my son. Having said that, I am terribly jealous of all the time my parents spend with my child and I long to be with him all day long, especially while he is young.
