Stay Home with Kids Urged

Published August 9, 2001
Home-based businesswoman, Kristie Rimmele is preparing
to celebrate the sixth annual "Stay Home With Your Kids
Day" on Monday August 19, 2002.
Stay Home With Your Kids Day is sponsored by WAHM.com:
The Online Magazine for Work-at-Home Moms. The purpose of
the day is to provide a day of recognition and celebration
for those parents who have chosen to be home with their
children.
Cheryl Demas, publisher of the WAHM.com web
site says, "If you're thinking about leaving the traditional
workplace, Stay Home With Your Kids Day is the perfect opportunity
to take a vacation day and give serious thought to making
the change. Leaving your job may not be an easy decision,
but if you heart aches every time you drive away from the
child care center in the morning, it might be time to look
at other options."
She said that there are many options for parents
today; aside from working full-time outside the home. Many
parents are finding that working from home is the perfect
solution to their work/home dilemma.
Tamsevicius has been running WebMomz.com and
KCD Web Design from her home since November of 1999.
"Owning my own home based business has given
me the freedom to live my life my way putting my kids first.
I schedule my workday around play dates and school events,"
she said.
"Stay Home With Your Kids Day gives people
a taste of what life 'could' be like if they chose to work
from home. It also allows people see the precious moments
that they miss out on when they kids are in a day care situation."
As Demas states, "If we can have a day to
take our children to work, we should be able to devote one
day to staying home with our children. While we realize
that not all parents can or wish to be home full-time with
their kids, WAHM.com is dedicated to giving advice and support
to those who are determined to make it work. Give it a try;
'Mom' can be the best job description you've ever had."
