It's no secret that us moms have many different titles to our name. Whether you are a stay at home mom, work at home mom, work away from home to everything in between we are workers and we work hard.
There are times in our mom roles that we will work beyond being a mom. For me it's easy to see how I, as a mom, work beyond this. Being a military spouse I am constantly juggling schedules, appointments, well baby check-ups, being the only parent while Leo is TDY {Temporary Duty--which is always out of town for him} and being a single parent while he is deployed fighting a war overseas. There are also times when he gets called into work during "off" duty time--and I say "off" duty time because when you are in the US military you are at work 24/7 and 365. So that means that I am also the one working and taking care of my family and home.
I love being a military spouse more than anything. I believe that it builds good character in myself and my two daughters. We know what it's like to have a parent fighting a war. We know what it's like having mom be both mom & dad while dad is away {hello...I have been doing lawn mowing and landscaping...and I LIKE it, haha!}. We know that without our support my husband wouldn't be able to perform at a high performance level. My mom duty has definitely now shaped into the backbone of my family role.
I have had the opportunity to partner up with Aquafresh--and they want me to find out from you--my readers--how Mom {you!} Works Beyond. Aquafresh is committed to lending moms a hand by supplying them with products, such as the amazing iso-active Whitening toothpaste, that achieves 33% better whitening compared to a non-whitening toothpaste.
