So, I was debating if I should put this one down or not. It is not a "thing", but more of an ability.
My number 5 of luxury in my life is ability to stay home with kids. Now, I know many of you will probably say that that is not luxury. But I truly believe it is. I was always very grateful, that even at the hardest moments (financial) of our marriage, I was able to stay home with the kids. Since we have come to England, I have ever more so realize how much it is a luxury to be stay at home mom. Economy here is really created on 2 household income and it makes impossible for mothers to stay at home. EVERY single mother that I have come in contact with at my kid's school, does some kind of job. (most of them do house cleaning) I have spoke to one of the sisters in our word here and have learned that government here really frowns upon mothers who don't work...As soon as her youngest daughter went to school, she start getting letters that her health care will be cut back if she doesn't return to work....
Yes, it is a luxury for me to stay home! And I am grateful for it!
