This is something that I'm facing myself, though not in the immediate. We're discussing putting the kids into public school and having me go back to work because being a housewife isn't satisfying for me.
On one hand I'm thrilled that I would have the opportunity to go back to work and actually contribute to the family in a very tangible way (since I am a lousy housekeeper because its hard to be motivated to actually clean stuff).
On the other hand, this is our last baby and it makes me so very sad to think about putting her into daycare when she's only around 2-3 months old since the kids will be back in school and I should be able to find a job that will keep me busy.
We have discussed me staying home with her this coming year if the kids do go to public, then putting her into daycare full time starting the following school year, but even that makes me a bit sad. Too bad I can't just find an awesome job where I can wear her all day. Heh
