Becky From Mrs. to Mama

Hello readers of Our Love and Our Blessing! I am so excited to be taking over Jen's piece of space on the internet and tell you guys a little about me and my crazy life.

To start off with, my name is Becky, and I blog over at From Mrs to Mama. I blog about all things related to marriage, motherhood, and our fun and blessed journey through life. Sometimes a little crazy. Always a whole bunch of fun.

When Jen asked me to blog about how I do it and how I make it work with my schedule I instantly had a smile on my face. Why? Because I get asked this question actually quite a bit. Not just on the internet world, but in the real world. At work. By family members. Even complete strangers.

How do you do it?


I wish I had some amazing answer for you. Sure, it may sound crazy that 3 nights a week I work the night shift at the hospital as a registered nurse at the top rated critical care unit in the State, and then come home to a very active 20 month old, make her day adventurous and exciting, clean the house, and then have a home cook meal ready on the table by the time my husband came home. Oh and did I mention I'm pregnant with baby #2?

Now. Did that make you a little nauseous just reading that?

I know it did me. The truth is... yes, I do all those things... but it isn't always grande. I don't always get the best activities in. I don't always have the most delicious meal on the table. I don't always get all the laundry put away. But I make it work.

We make it work.

It works for our family. I don't know anything else. I don't feel any more overwhelmed at times than any other mom. This is my life... this is my everyday.

I often times look at the mom who has triplets and I say the exact same thing... how do you do it?

Her response to me? I just do. It's the only life I know.

And I smile. Because I get it. We are all super because of that mom title. No matter the situation. No matter the number. What we do or what we don't do. We are all unique, hardworking, and would do anything for our family.

So does my schedule seem crazy to outside person looking in? Sure. But does it make me any better than you, you, or you?

Absolutely not. I'm a mom. It's the best title in the world, and I would do anything to make sure that my children grow up knowing how hard I worked to make their life was full of love and special memories.

Being a mom is special. And it definitely brings out the super woman in us all.

Holy smokes....isn't Becky just freakin' awesome?!  She's constantly blowing me away with all of the energy she has (working a full time job and being a stay at home mom).  ANNNDDD....let's not forget that she also has/finds time to blog every-single-day!!!  I highly suggest you check out her blog and become inspired.  :)
