To all SAHM out there...

I am working from home and I also consider myself as a SAHM. I have a helper and I thank her for assisting me with some household chores. However, at times I still feel myself exhausted because of so much workload. And it's sad because some people invalidate our hardships just because we are SAHM. We don't need your praises, we just need your understanding.

We get tired too.

We need breaks.

That's why I don't feel guilty going to my fav salon for a mani pedi sesh. Because sometimes what we need is just a little pampering.

If you are a SAHM, virtual hugs momshies! You deserve a break.

If you are no longer happy, no matter how you ...
