My son just recently reached his 10-month birthday. For 8 of these 10 months, I have been among
the 70 percent of working mothers (I’ve researched this statistic. It was found in report entitled Employment Characteristics of Family Summary
published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics). The concept of the working mother is a common
reality in the United States; therefore, this blog is moot.
When I had originally created this blog, it was to help me
sort through conflicting feelings I had as a working mother. I have more than come to terms with my new
lifestyle; I have embraced it. The fact is,
I have a great career and a loving family.
I am lucky.
I do feel a need to continue blogging, but with a new
focus: how does a busy working mother maintain a healthy lifestyle with
limited time and a small budget?
