Back to work for Mommy!

Well these past few weeks have felt hectic and I have been unable to post on my blog
Sofia is growing so fast and already coo-ing and smiling. Just melts my heart and brings tears to my eyes. Motherhood is so rewarding and draining at the same time. Going back to work, even part time is exhausting! Besides the kids, there is the house work, laundry, cooking, gardening, and finances! I find myself feeling guilty if toys are scattered, laundry is piled, and I can feel dirt on the soles of my feet when walking around the house. But after talking to my friend this past weekend she reminded me that it’s okay to take a “guilt-free Mommy Day”! Music to my ears and a great reminder to chill! Every morning when I wake up I try to get myself ready first – very hard! But if I get dressed, wash my face, comb my hair, and most importantly, eat something, then I feel more whole throughout the day. So, all you mothers out there, take a deep breath, smile, and take a moment for yourself. Better yet, take a day!
