Working Momma

Today I'm linking up with Kelly's Korner....her Friday series "Show us Your Life" is featuring working moms today, so I thought it would be fun and maybe make some new mommy blogger friends!

Meet my family!!
I get to be the wife to my amazing husband Paul....

Mommy to these two precious boys...

And a middle school Language Arts teacher to many!

I am in my seventh year of teaching and between that, mommy duties, wife duties, house duties, weekend sports, book club, blogging, hanging out with family and friends and so on...I am one busy gal!  But I love our life and wouldn't change it!

I think we all can agree that being a mom period is hard WORK! And alot of work at that!! I love being a momma and it is definitely my number one priority! With that said I do feel that sometimes I have the best of both worlds, I have the best schedule, I get to have adult coversations every day, I have had some great kids over the years, and I hope I am making a difference in some of their lives!

Being a full time working mom for the last four years has taught me alot about balancing my time. Most importantly I have learned that it's not all about the quantity of time you spend with your children it's the quality of time you spend with them...and that's exactly what my husband and I do...we make the most out of our time!!

I would love to make some new working mommy friends or at least find some new blogs to read!! If you live in my area I'd love to hear from you!!

hi there, stopping by from Kelly's blog. Your family is adorable! I agree that being a working momma is hard work {being a mom in general is hard work} and it takes balance to be able to function properly. I'm still working on that part of it =)

Hi Tara, I saw your link on Kelly's blog. I know exactly where you family photos were taken, the door gives it away (ha ha). I'm also a working mama in N. Texas. Loved you post!
