How did we get here?

Back when Matthew was 6 months old I joined a playgroup, where I met 5 wonderful ladies with kids about the same age. For several years we pretty much did everything together. During that time we would all make if very clear that we would never go back to work, that we were stay at home mom's forever.
Well, last weekend I went to a birthday party of one the kids, and realized that all of us are now working again. And we are not just working for a little extra money, we all have responsibility and people who depend on us, almost like we have started new careers. How did we get here?

Oh well, I just thought is was funny cuz we all loved being home with our kids and promised we would never go back to work. I guess life just gets in the way sometimes.
Oh well, here is too the other 5 ladies who are now working again, you know who you are.

I write this because I have been home for the past four months unemployed and really got used to being a stay at home mom again. Now today I start a new season in my life with a great organization who mission I truly believe in. Wish me luck and pray for me.
Thanks
