Laurie Dickan
I am married to an amazing man; a great husband and father. I have been blessed with 4 kids; Anthony (24), Nathan (22), Allie (15) and Jake (4). Being a mom for most of my life has been rewarding and challenging.
Currently, I don't work outside of the home. Even though my plans were to go back to work after Jake was born, I can honestly say -- I like this job much better! Like any job it has its perks and then there are the days where you want to call in sick, not get up and stay in bed all day. I would say the only thing I miss about working outside the home is being able to take the day off and do whatever it is that I want to do (well, I do miss the money too). Much of my time is spent driving Jake to various therapies as well as chauffering Allie and her friends around, helping with homework, packing lunches, making dinner, etc. On paper it doesn't sound so glamorous; but the rewards are better than I could have ever imagined.
