I feel the exact same way. I cherish every day with my daughter and if I had to leave her to go to work, I sure wouldn't be leaving her in daycare longer than I can avoid. Both sets of parents that are with me right now do this. I personally don't get it or would ever do this, no matter how hard it might be to clean with my kids. In the long run they are the ones missing out on such a precious time that goes by way too fast.
