Expectation of being a WAHM: You stay on top of your career while being present for your little one’s fleeting, formative years.
Reality: It takes 45 minutes to respond to an e-mail because of the endless demands for snacks, diapers, “Can I play with your phone?”, “Come wipe me,” and just, “Mom,” on repeat. The laundry pile looms behind you like the villain in a horror film (just smother me already) while your feral children’s toys multiply and spread through the house until it’s Jumanji. Seriously, who wet the gremlin?
You need help. You became a WAHM to get away from drama and to be the mom you always wanted to be, so what do you do? You get the tools and implement the strategies that puts your sanity first, that ensures your children are still being nurtured and are forming secure attachments, because you all deserve a peaceful, productive workday.
