Working mom vs. SAHM

I recently got into a fairly heated argument/discussion about working moms and sahms.  I guess as a working mom, I can honestly say how jealous I am of sahms.  Yes, it is incredibly hard work, but I don't think I have ever done something as rewarding as being a mom.  As a working mom, I can already feel the tension beginning as the new school year approaches.  Rob has stated that he prefers '" summer Ellen."  I think of the rushing out the door, the crazed evenings, the late nights grading papers and doing paperwork.  I get sad looking at the park district brochure and seeing all these cool things to do with your kids...and guess when they are...during the flipping day!  Helpful.  I guess since I am a working mom, it is all I know and maybe we always want what we can't have.  I will say that being home with my kids this summer was super hard..but you know what, I didn't take one minute of it for granted that is for sure.  And I try to think of daycare as a great opportunity for my kids.  Jordan has an awesome vocabulary and good social skills and I attribute that to her exposure to other kids.  Brooke is also pretty easygoing and willingly goes to others.  There are two distinct camps though I am beginning to see...sahms look at working moms a certain way and vice versa.  I mean no disrespect to sahms, but our challenges are very, very different.  I am lucky that I am a teacher...it is a good "working mom" job.  I will just keep plugging away and hope that I am laying a good foundation for my kids and that they never regret me not being the room mom or the one that goes on fieldtrips.
