mediator/counselor, photographer, comforter, doctor/caretaker...

And I agree with all of you! I'm way underpaid! And, technically, since I already work outside the home 40 hours, my mom pay is ALL overtime considering I do all of that stuff after I work 8-10 hour days! I should be making a killing!
