All I can say is being a working mom is no joke. I have now been back at work for almost
two months. I absolutely love the
daycare we are using for Mya, so I don’t find myself worrying about her during
the day. That is such a relief,
but I do miss her terribly when we are apart. I am finding that fitting all of my normal activities in
each day is much more of a challenge.
Since I’m apart from Mya during the workday, I want to spend as much
time with her in the evenings as possible. This makes finding time to workout, clean, do laundry, and
cook dinner much more difficult each night. I’m still working on finding a balance. I have been running and doing the
Jillian Michael’s 30 Day Shred several times a week. When I don’t feel like doing them, I remind myself that I am
becoming a healthier version of myself for not only me but also for Mya. I want to set a good example for her to
follow. With childhood obesity
rates climbing as they are, it makes me wonder if more adults spent time
getting healthier, would it trickle down to our children. I want Mya to be active and healthy, so
I’m determined to be the same.
