Twenty four hours in a day is not enough to accomplish everything that’s needed to be done at home, aside from the errands I need to run and do every single day.

If a fulltime job for others is an 8am to 5pm job, being a SAHM is 24 hours every single day. No day off.  No overtime pay.  No promotion. No resignation… How about that?

The only consolation we get as SAHM is to see our kids and husband happy and content healthy, and well taken care of.  It is very important though that SAHMs realize that it is impossible to create a family that is healthy, happy and content if the mother, which is the queen of the nest, is unhappy and unhealthy.  Taking good care of ourselves and taking time for ourselves alone is essential in creating a vibrant energy within us that will keep us going everyday in fulfilling our role as a SAHM.
