I’m hoping that now I’ll find a better balance because it wasn’t the best thing for my family for me to be working too much. Some people have to work two or three jobs to stay afloat and some moms are single moms who have to do it all. In my case, I’m very lucky – my husband works and I both work so we have a two-income household. We were very fortunate that I was able to slow it down.


The one thing I always tell myself when I come home from work is that I have to be a mom. It’s not the kid’s fault if I’m stressed and I’m exhausted- that’s not their problem. So I just tell myself – ‘I can do it, I’m a grown-up.’ I just turn on the mom mode and have fun.

Her relationship with her husband is going really well. Despite being married for so many years, she has never cheated on her husband. Similarly, her darling husband has also been very faithful toward his wife. That’s why there are no rumors of divorce between this couple.
