Comments on: My Job Proposed and I Said “No” http://www.calebwilde.com/2012/10/my-job-proposed-and-i-said-%e2%80%9cno%e2%80%9d/ Working at the Crossroads of this World and the Next Fri, 17 May 2013 14:15:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.4.2 By: HopefulLeigh http://www.calebwilde.com/2012/10/my-job-proposed-and-i-said-%e2%80%9cno%e2%80%9d/#comment-8024 HopefulLeigh Wed, 10 Oct 2012 23:20:00 +0000 http://www.calebwilde.com/?p=4992#comment-8024 So much of this is how I felt right before I realized I needed to take a social work sabbatical. And now that I'm not working in the field and have regained my sense of who I am again, I'm not sure I'll ever go back. It sounds like you've got your priorities straight, however. More power to you, Caleb! Keep taking it one day at a time. So much of this is how I felt right before I realized I needed to take a social work sabbatical.

It will make all the difference in your family's future. Kel is in the ministry and it's much the same, if he's not there to guide and someone falls away, he feels guilty, heart sick. Yet my kids only have one Dad, no one else can do that Job. I only have one husband and I can't hire that out either. Also, I give you 724 Dad points for baby wearing the little man in your dressy funeral attire. Love it, and a half. This is brave and phenomenal manifesto. It will make all the difference in your family’s future.
