Hello Sweeties!
I have been a working Mom for the past 16 odd years. Maybe because I have seen my Mom do it and do it well, I have not thought there was an alternative. Aside from the economic aspect of being working Mom that really works well for us, living and raising kids now days, is no joke. My husband needed to go abroad for us to make ends meet.
This is what makes this the H.O.P.E Summit so interesting for me. It is toted as an alternative to working in an office where most of the time to I am away from my kids. As much as I try to balance everything and be completely part of their everyday lives, I feel there could be much more I could do.
Bestselling author and inspirational speaker Teresa Gumap-as Dumadag is organizing a parenting event dubbed as Hands-On Parents while Earning or H.O.P.E. Summit on August 8, 2015.
