Working Mom

I believe that being a mom is work 24/7, whether she stays at home or is employed outside the home. I  work outside the home for financial reasons, but even if I had the financial resources to stay home I would likely still work outside the home. I am one of those people that require adult interaction and have a desire to be outside the home. I feel like I am a better mom because I work outside the home. I know many people will argue this fact but anyone that knows me would likely agree that it is best that I work outside the home. I have complete admiration for moms that are able to stay at home with their kids. Staying home would likely send me to an insane asylum.
Working full-time at a job that is 30 miles from home and being a divorced mom has its challenges but thankfully I am blessed that Madelyn has an amazing dad that is truly a co-parent in every sense of the word. I am grateful for him.
I adore my daughter and love her more than any person in the entire world and because I work outside the home does not mean I love or adore her any less. It just means I know my limits. :)
