All working moms struggle with this. It’s great if you’re able to strike a balance between home and work life but you have to think long-term. Your kids will adjust to your schedule and while they may miss you at times, you’ll also be teaching them to be self reliant and to appreciate the importance of doing something you love. Even though I’m less physically available for them than I was when I worked part-time from home, I think my kids respect me more now that I work full-time.

Go for career that will bring you the most satisfaction. If you’re happy, the rest of the family will be happy, too.
