A Mother's Sacrifice

How does it feels to leave your children for almost half a day, every single day? Believe me, it's not easy to put up a brave front pretending that it's okay to leave your children in stranger's hands.

Do you know that an estimated 9 hours x 5 working days x 53 weeks (52 if it's a leap year) = is equivalent to 2,385 of precious hours in a year? That's many hours of lost communication and touch.

But hey, I'm not complaining. I love my job! It's just a little perspective check.

Remember to be nice to your colleagues with children! You do not know the challenges that they have to go through until you're a parent yourself. And yeah, here's to a stronger me & millions of other parents in the workforce! You ROCK!
