A Day in the Life of a
  Working Mother.
5:00 A.M.
                                                      Getting
                                                      ready to
                                                      go to
                                                      work for
                                                      10 hours.




The only drive I have to get up that early is the
fact that I have to do my part to provide for our
family. Sometimes that is my only drive to roll out
of bed after only having 4 hours at the most of
sleep!
Oh how I wish I could let
    him sleep longer.




          5:30 A.M.
          She dresses and
          awakens the boy for
          daycare.
6:00 A.M.
                                               Driving the 80
                                               miles to Salt lake
                                               every morning.




 The car naturally puts me to sleep and Im
so exhausted anyway.it is a fight to stay
awake! A lot of times Im thinking about
what needs to get done for the day, or Im
pondering the topic they are talking about
on the radio Sometimes I get to work and
have no idea how I got there!!! I feel like
Im on auto pilot when Im driving.
Dropping off
her boy at
daycare
before
heading for
work.




     I hate the fact that someone else gets to see his quirky little ways
     during the daywhile I miss out!! But I do have to say that Im so
     grateful for such a wonderful place to entrust the care of my child. It
     used to be worse when I took him elsewhere. I trust the Intermountain
     Child Development center and know that even though there is no way
     they love him like I do, they love him and teach and do what is best for
     him.
7:00 A.M.
                               I watch as she begins
                               her work and am
                               surprised that she can
                               sit in this little
                               cubicle almost every
                               day of her life, talk
                               about sacrifice.



There are so many wishes
I have.but if I had to boil
it down to one, I would
wish that I could have
enough money so that I
could be a stay at home
mom with my children and
spend more time enjoying
the little things instead of
working from sun up to
sun down!
My friend Sheryl and I call our
morning walks our therapy
session! It is a means to get away
from the computer and get out and
just move and vent! It is a very
needed valued release for the day! It
also is a good way to get in exercise
that I would otherwise not be
getting!




                                        10:00 A.M.
                                        The daily walk.
Working gives me a sense of accomplishment, money to spend without feeling guilty of not earning it, an outlet
to interact with other adults, the opportunity to grow and learn new things every day, keeping up on the
technology. There are cons thoughMissing out on a lot of your childrens firsts, activities, joys and school
functions, spending 2 hours a day driving to and from work, having to juggle how to get your kids from point a-z,
not having time to keep the house clean and organized, eating dinner at 9:00 p.m. always rushing in lifenot
being able to enjoy the little things.
4:45 P.M.
The paid work day is
almost over for her,
Im amazed at how
selfless this woman is.
I never realized how
much she sacrificed for
me and my family, only
someone who loves with
all their heart could
do something like this
all day long.
6:45 P.M.
She arrives home to
chaos.




                      I try to teach respect. I want my children to respect everyone
                      even if they dont agree with them. I also want them to learn
                      kindness and self control. Ive noticed that it is human nature to
                      treat outside people better than our family members. I dont want
                      them to think that is ok. If I find myself not showing a good
                      example, I try to take time out to point out that even mommies
                      make mistakes and that we all need to ask forgiveness and also
                      grant forgiveness. This is easier said than done a lot of times.but
                      the teaching moments when they come around are wonderful! We
                      can all learn from our mistakes! I always want them to
                      realize that just because I have to punish them doesnt
                      mean that I love them any less. I always want my kids to
                      know I have their best interest in my mind always, and even
                      when they disappoint me, I love them unconditionally!
8:00 P.M.
After dinner is through she
does the dishes, she never
stops going.




We all love our children just the
same, and we really could teach
each other and help each other a lot
if we wouldnt stereotype each
other! Even though I would love to
be able to stay home with my kids, I
cant and that is ok.doesnt make
me a bad mom or love my kids
any less than they do
Working mother
9:30 P.M.
                     Getting the
                     kids ready
                     for bed.




Night time is the
only time I really
get to see my
kiddies!!
Trying to help her children get a better nights sleep
she rubs some natural oils on their feet every night.
I love you to the moon and back!
1:00 A.M. She finally goes to bed. Never getting enough sleep.
