One Secret to a Working Mom Success: Minimize Expenses

on
Following Instagram posts can make you feel like other moms are either made of money or have sugar daddies funding their lifestyles. I can assure you. I have neither. There is nobody funneling money into my household except for me. And because I was an economics major and my dad was a banker, I am keenly aware of cash flow, assets and liabilities, and expenditures. Still, sometimes, I forget how expensive life can be. It's not because I lied about having a sugar daddy or have a trust fund.  It is because I am frugal. Indeed, being conscious of expenditures is integrated into my lifestyle.  I know that it is gauche to discuss money and yet, I feel compelled to share some thoughts.

Wordless Wednesday: Help From My Mommy Village

on
Everyone knows it takes a village to raise a child. I've even given a shout out to my village on this blog previously. (Click here to read about it.) Indeed, one of the reason I am able to do it all a lot is because family, our caregiver and other moms help me out. Today, I missed an awards ceremony at my daughter's school because of miscommunication and a minor family crisis. However, because of the kindness of another mom, I did not miss out entirely. 


Below are some photos of our girl at the ceremony wearing her UVA outfit taken by my friend, Julie (compliments of my cousin Korine)--very fitting! :-) 

Julie, I owe you one!!!
