A Mommy's Job

The other day we went to lunch with some friends. They had to leave early so their Mommy could go to work. Dallen argued with me the whole way home that “Mommy’s don’t work, Daddy’s do” I tried to explain that sometimes Mommy’s work to help their families, but that was just unacceptable to him. I am so blessed that I get to stay at home and be a full-time Mommy. I get to spoil my little man with lots of fun things and we always get to do them together. Being a Mommy really is the best job in the whole world. Instead of corporate dinners, we get to host peanut butter and jelly sandwich lunch playdates. Instead of going to meetings, we get to meet our friends at the pools and the parks. And instead of attending conferences and field trips we get to go to fun places, like the Children’s Museum in Phoenix...

As a full time Mommy, instead of wearing formal attire to work, we get to make paper and sticker ties and hats.Instead of treking to work in the concrete jungle, we get to play in noodle forrests.
Our commute is never bad either.

And when we travel with friends, we get to carpool
One of my favorite perks are the bonuses, the paychecks may be small but the rewards are endless!!
I have the best job in the whole world!! As much as I love my job, I am looking forward to my vacation when I have the help of Aunts, Uncles, Mimi, Gigi and Grandpas and even Daddy. We will see you when we get back from the beach :)

I always say having more kids is like having a job promotion - more work but no more pay. Congrats on upcoming baby #2. Being a mom is the best job in the world.
