    I'm not a single mom, but I work full time, attend school and raise 2 gorgeous girls! I don't know how I do it, but I do!

    What a great topic...I think the best role model is a happy mom.

    Oh me! I have 3 kids with a 4th on the way and finally I don't feel guilty about enjoying my work! I *only* do 30hrs, but it's the perfect balance for me & my family - I get some time to exercise my brain and contribute to the family finances and my family get a much happier wife and Mum. I know being a working Mum isn't for everyone, but it is for me :)

    I have 2 kids and work night shift as an RN in OB. I am blessed to have a great support system that helps me out. Plus my kids are getting bigger now, 8 & 10, so its not such a big deal for them to be alone in the house when I an sleeping during the day. And I take them with me to the gym. Mine has a playroom. And I am trying to get healthier for them so I can be around to help raise my grandkids.
