Being Moms & Business Owners

Being mothers and small business owners has its advantages as well as its challenges. It’s great to be able to work our schedule around our families’ needs. Right now, we are working summer hours and when the kids are back in school we adjust our schedule. When one of our children is sick we don’t have to panic about calling in to work. We simply shift our hours to work in the evening when dad is home.

However, we still struggle with balancing our time between family and work. There is no question in our minds that family is first, but we also have a business that we love and are still growing. We find that multi-tasking and time management both at home and at work is second nature to us now … and we thought we were really productive before being moms!

We recently joined a local meet-up of “Momtrepreneurs.” This group is made up of moms that are starting or already own their own business. It is interesting to network with this group of women that are in situations very similar to ours.

Even though our lives are crazy busy, we wouldn’t have it any other way. We love being mothers and we love our work with Three Graces Design.
