Scheduling
The first thing you must do is make a schedule. People without schedules are usually lost and ended up wasting their time on unnecessary things. As a mum, you can’t afford to let that happen.
A schedule is actually good for the whole family too.When everyone knows when you are available and when you are not, they will try to treat your time with respect, which makes it easier for you to handle your day.
Quality time
Spending time with your kids as well as your husband is incredibly important. Most busy working mums are aware of this fact but can’t seem to make the time to fulfill this need.
You should make sure that you spend ample, if not extra quality time with your kids and beloved hubby each week. Remember that your husband is more likely to help out with the work load at home if he feels cared for as well so be sure to invest some extra time in him whenever you can!
Me, myself and I

Something to look forward to

Plan a family trip or vacation or make arrangements for you and your husband to go off alone. Even a night out without the kids in fast-food joint is something to look forward to so be creative with your plans.
