The truth of being a working mom

I remember when I was a kid, I use to think about what type of work I'd like to do, how I'd like my family to be especially when it comes to kids, but let me tell you, all that daydreaming was just simply a daydream. Because when I hit adulthood life was a whole new ball game.

Now for many, the experience is different since some of us have our parents to depend on and some of us need to go to work as soon as we complete the second level of education. Many become mom's at a very young age and so your job just becomes twice as difficult especially when you got to face it all alone because the father bailed on you. Some mom's reality is that they didn't even get to choose if they wanted to sleep with their child's father. All we know as women with kids, we got to work to live and provide for our children.

Working moms doesn't necessarily mean a mom that has a job with kids. It means moms that got to work all day and plus take care of their kids. See we have moms with jobs, spouses, and kids. These moms need to get up before the sun is out to prepare the kids for sitter or school, prepare for the spouse to head to work, and prepare themselves for work. These moms have to come home and take care of their home, kids, and spouses and do this on a daily basis. That is so tiring but the greatest part of this is family time.

We have the moms that are doing it all on their own, so they get up and prepare their children for the sitter or school and then prepare themselves for work. Now, these mom's since they have no one helping them, being a working mom just becomes a whole lot harder. When they are done with work they need to pick up the kids, head home deal with the house, help the kids with homework, and wake up the next day and do it all over. The greatest reward is being considered the hero.

Last we have the moms that stay home. Even though they are home mom, that doesn't mean their job is easy because they still need to get up early and prepare for their spouse to go to work, prepare for the kids that need to go to school and the ones that aren't old enough for school yet, let me tell you that part just ain't easy. When you're at home you got to clean, wash, cook take care of the kids, prepare supper, and still be the last one to go to bed and if you have a toddler or baby being an at-home mom becomes so difficult since you can't really do much.

So you see being a working mom is not easy. The greatest part is our children and the moments we can never redo, Seeing them grow up and being a part of their lives are our greatest rewards.
