Why Working Moms Are Amazing

     


I recently sent ashout-out to all the stay-at-home momssaying how amazing they are. 

And indeed, they are! I used to be a stay-at-home mom who taught part-time on evenings and weekends, and I cherished my time at home with my little one so much — although some days I went nuts without adult time.

 In the past two years, though, I went back to the workforce and am going throughdivorce proceedings, and so my life has changed so much.

 I've been both a SAH mom and a workingone, and both have pros and cons, but for all my ladies working the full-time, part-time, and overnight shifts whether on location or at home, this love letter is for you!Sisters Are Doin' It For 

ThemselvesEvery time you bring home a paycheck, working mama, you are showing your children how crucial you are to not only making their lives run smoothlybut also for keeping that roof over their heads! Sure, at age .

3 they don't realize what bills and a mortgage or rent are, but when they're older, they'll understand that Mom isn't just the daily chef, cleaner, and entertainer.

 She's a moneymaker and quite possibly the breadwinner.According to theBureau of Labor Statistics, 

"The percent of the population working or looking for work — for all mothers with children under age 18 was 70.

1 percent in 2014." That's a lot of working mommies! We are a huge part of the workforce, ladies. That's right! America's workforce relies on us.
