Whatever it takes




So for the past three years, I've done whatever it took to be able to stay home with Noah. It hasn't been easy to say the least and I've sacrificed more than I ever thought I would. But that's the beauty of parenthood. It humbles you and turns a selfish me-monster into a selfless mother. I'm so grateful to have had the support and love from family and friends that helped make these past three years possible and most importantly grateful for the time I was able to be home with Noah. 

As a new chapter unfolds, I will once again be doing whatever it takes in order to better our lives, to provide. I'll be working a second job beginning the 20th of this month (and a third shortly thereafter, which I'm super excited about and will post about soon 😉). I've been blessed with the opportunity to work at European Wax Center at San Tan Village and am flooded with mixed emotions. I'm sad to leave my baby for 6.5 hours a day (I honestly have moments where I ball just thinking about leaving him) but grateful and excited to be earning extra money doing what I love, that will result in us getting our own place, a more reliable car, quality vacations and the list goes on. I honestly have to give props to all the mamas who work hard every day both in and out of the home and sacrifice so much every day to make sure their kids have what they need and want. It's hard work. And that's an understatement. But I'm grateful to be surrounded by so many hardworking moms that inspire me to keep going, to do hard things. You're all amazing and doing a wonderful job! 💗

So by March I'll be wearing many hats. I'll still be doing lashes from home, working at EWC, singing when I get the chance (it never feels like work for me) and the third job. And who knows. Maybe I'll end up on The Voice and not need to work the three jobs. 😀 But that's just it. I don't know what the future holds for me and my little angel. But I do know that if I work hard and keep an open mind and heart, that all will be well. Life is about to get real interesting! Thankfully, motherhood has taught me how to multitask and accept chaos in all of its glory. 

So going forward I ask for prayers, positive vibes and any tips/tricks/suggestions as I make the transition from a full-time stay at home mom to a part-time stay at home/out of the home mommy. 

Here's to a better future! 💗🙋🏻
