My most recent visit to the forums there got me thinking about the many roles that we play as work-at-home moms. Not only are there business roles that we must fulfil, there are also parenting roles and responsibilities. To be successful, a work-at-home mom must truly wear many hats.
I thought it might be fun today to list and describe some of the hats that we, as WAHMs, wear. (If you're thinking of working from home, this list might give you a better picture of what it's actually like to be a work-at-home mom.) I've divided the hats we wear into two categories: parenting hats and business hats. (The business hats category is particularly relevent for single proprietors.)

You forgot personal assistant and organization consultant, and most of the parenting list is doubled if you're in a marriage/relationship.
