My cousin's wife - she took time off to have two kids, worked part-time until the youngest was three, then went back to work full-time. The youngest is now entering kindergarten, after being in daycare... while Kelly has just been promoted to a regional manager for her bank... so yes it is possible. The key is not cutting all ties with work while raising the kids, it makes the re-intergration back into the workforce alot easier.
