One Secret to a Working Mom Success: Minimize Expenses

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.

Wednesday Reflections: My husband and kids

Daddy and kids
As I have said numerous times in this blog, being a working mom is hard work. Only the truly strong, committed, and organized thrive with the madness that is Corporate America and home maintenance. And being a good wife is challenging too. What does that even mean in modern times? And, how do we get everything on "the worker, wife, mommy things to do list" done?


While I will continue to explore those topics. Today, I am pausing and saying "Thank You" to the universe for this blessed life that is mine. This photo just melts my heart.

Enjoy!!!
