[quote=Anonymous]You need more help. Try to get a Jr. High mother's helper during the week or on weekends, to give you a couple hours break occasionally. Being a single working mom is so hard. I have a husband but we both work full-time and have 4 kids, including 2yo twins who are tearing up our house daily. It is exhausting to be "on" from 5:30am to 9pm daily with no break. We just collapse in bed nightly. My lovely mom babysits one day/week, while the AP works 4 10 hour days, and that just covers our work time. I too am looking for a mother's helper, so that I can actually give my kids some attention, instead of just cooking, cleaning, bathing, laundering, etc while I am home. I know it will get better in a couple years when they are old enough to help with chores, and why my twins stop destroying my house. Hang in there.[/quote]
