Tough Choices
As a mother of young children, it is always your concern to be with them while they are sill young for they will only be young once. Once they will become teenagers, it would be a different phase of motherhood already. But if you are a working mother like me, sometimes there would be some sacrifices that you would make especially when you will be torn between work and family. You got have a well work-life balance. But it does not wok all the time. Just like last weekend when I had to leave my kids behind because I had to attend a conference. If work calls for it there is nothing that you can really do. I felt so bad when I received the email from my boss. But I could not say no to that. Sometimes I wish that I have travel trailers so I can just drag my entire family with me wherever I go. I hope one day, when my kids could come across this post, they would understand why mama can’t be home at times not because she wants to but because she has to. Though this does not happen all the time, but I can’t contain the feeling that I was not with them last weekend when they were suppose to bond with me because they are off from school. Life is like that I know.

I don’t mean to be too in your face with this, but let’s just say I definitely have a different view on this. Great post though…
