As a mom you don’t always have time to do the things you love because there is always other things family related that must be attended to. I know that when I’m being over worked and under taken cared of is when I constantly feeling drained, frustrated and unhappy. Not necessarily with my family life, but rather with my overall being because I’ve been giving myself 100% to my work, my family, my children, my

It’s been 5 months since my baby was born, and about two months since returning back to the land of the working class. I received my first salary in February since my maternity leave ended and it was so nice to have a salary again after four months of none.

Yo today is the last day of holiday and you guys won’t believe (or maybe you can) how long, exhausting and tiring this month long holiday was. It was awesome because I got to spend much needed time with them before I go back to the real world after a 4 month maternity leave break. I am ready to get back into it. The run-down of the Holiday: – Somehow my kids are just a

I’m a bit late in doing this because Yameen’s is almost 4 month old again but I figured it would be awesome to check on his development later on, when he is older and I have forgotten everything that’s happened in his first year of his life. It’s been an awesome three months so far, and it also feels like 2017 went far too quickly, when I looked again he was born and now three
