I'm a full-time working mom of two and I definitely struggle with the desire to stay home and be with them versus having a career! I will say that having a mom who worked full-time during my entire childhood gave me a role-model of a woman who was smart, dedicated, and loved me! I never felt that she wasn't there for me or was choosing something else OVER me, only that she was a complex person who was a mom along with so many other things. So keep up the good work, mama!!
+Lisa R thanks for the encouragement!😘 I agree, your kiddos know that you love by how far you will go to make sure they are taken care of and provided for! I try to spend as much time as I can with him whenever I am home! Right now that is the way it has to be!
I am a stay at home mom right now, it's incredibly hard to live on one income. The goal was for me to go back around 4 months pp but Lucas is now almost 8 months and I'm still home. I'm doing part time paper work for my brother in law's business but at home so that's nice. I miss my income haha, but these times won't come back so I'm trying to enjoy as much as possible.
Money is nice, haha but nothing compared to being there for your little ones! I wish everyday that I had more time with him! Hopefully someday soon I can be a stay at home mom too! He'll only be this little once!
+Justine Marie yes you are right baby lol is this little only once ! So we as mother should our time to them. I too quit my job for my baby ( he is just 6 months now ) and don't want to go for work at least he turns 1 year. Anyways I love your videos. 👍😊
Just found your channel and so glad to see another working momma on the UA-cam world :) I totally agree w/you about the time you DO get being really special and wanting to be more present for everything (if that make sense) :)
I agree! There is just something about doing it in the early morning! I was struggling with it for a while but I am so happy that I am back in the habit! I am reading Ezekiel right now, how about you?
It looks like your schedule is little more flexible than most 8-5 jobs, take it in stride I'd love to have that type of schedule. It will work out in the end, they may see mom goes to work but they also know mommy will be back. I know I miss my girls everyday while I work but I'd rather have two incomes than my husband be the one with that extra pressure until he makes enough for me not to work. You're doing great, do what you have to do mom
Aww thank you Victoria! You are so sweet! I may have curled my hair this day, and I usually do, but I have top knot/braid days too... in fact today was one! haha!
That tree blossoming is so pretty outside your window at work. Such a nice view :) That's nice you at least have your mom watch him while you work so it's not like it's a complete stranger. And you're only working part time so that's nice :) Also you're so brave feeding Marcus while wearing that white blazer haha
good job on the working mom gig...I quit just last week from my software job it was getting extremely stressful and I wasn't able to spend any time with my 8 months old. wish I had the reduced hours etc. please visit my channel too, just started vlogging :)
Thank you so much! CONGRATS! I am soo happy for you! It must be soo nice to get to be all there for your little one! I will def check out your channel! Thanks for watching:)
I have an 8 month old son and I work part time as well. I want to be a stay at home mom so bad too! I am not as put together as you are though :p You go momma! I also make vlogs! I'd love if you'd check them out! :)
Haha, thank you! I usually do manage to get ready! But I have messy bun days too! Hope you can become a stay at home mom sooon! It's just so hard to live on one income these days!

Being able to stay home is great. I only got to do it for a year and a half. You're very blessed
I know I am! It is such a relief! Trying to enjoy every minute while it lasts!:)
What were you doing when your child went under the crib?
I don’t remember that was over a year ago, he used to play under there all the time. We were all in the same room though:)
