Question 1 and Introduction

Our contest is closed, and so are the comments. If you would still like to answer the questions we would love to have your answers emailed to mrs.pear (at) cox.net. Thank you.

We are writing a book for families where the wife would like to leave the workplace and return home full time for one simple reason - when our family made this switch there was very little help available, and a lot of people were far from encouraging! After all, we did not have Miss Pear yet, so what was I going to do all day???

We are not getting into the discussion of whether or not that is the right thing to do, there are lots of valid opinions out there, and lots of information. We are talking to the family who wants to make this change, and needs help and encouragement!

We are using this contest to gauge if our focus is on track, or if we have missed anything! It would be sad to spend all this time writing only to have taken a wrong turn!

So, our first question is a two part question, and is very easy!

1) Which currently describes you the best:

• A) I am a stay at home wife and/or mother, and always have been.
• B) I am a stay at home wife and/or mother who once worked outside the home while married.
• C) I am a wife and/or mother who works outside the home, but wish to be home full time.
• D) I am a grown daughter living in my father's home.
• E) Other, please specify
  

2) What title do you prefer to describe you? Homemaker? Stay at home Wife/Mom? Keeper at home? Queen (this is what my husband jokingly calls me, it is a long story as to why, but it is funny and loving). Whatever it is, please share it with me!
