return to work part time?...big decision.

I've been a stay at home mommy for some time which has surprisingly kept me more busy than I originally planned! I've worked little jobs off and on for the last 4 and 1/2 years. My favorite job, at the bank, lasted two years! But, I'm thinking of doing something new, just part time. No long hours and nothing to high on the stress level. I'll still be that every day mommy to the kids, but when the hubby gets home, I would leave to a little job for a couple hours, a few days a week.
The money will help a lot. We're wanting to buy a home by end of Summer 2011 at the latest(before Lacey starts kindergarten). So, my going back to work now will help our financing of the house, just to show the two incomes, let alone putting the extra money aside into savings. I just am not 100% sure I'm ready to leave Brody yet. He's almost 16 months and I am just a little attached to him now. Lacey has started pre-K in the afternoons, so I now have this alone time with just him. We haven't had that yet. Since I'd be working evenings, I would still get that alone time, but will be losing time with Lacey since she's in preschool now. I'd only see her in the mornings and right before bed, four days a week. What's a mom to decide? I know it will benefit us and I think it will work out. I've given it to God though to really work through and lead me to the right place. Time will tell...
