Hundreds of dewdrops to greet the dawn‚ Hundreds of bees in the

The hand that rocks the cradle can rock the boardroom After being raised by a mother who´s time has been mostly spent working and trying to run a business‚ it is definite for me that a working mother can not expect to be good mother. Comparing my working mother´s job as a mother to my friend´s mothers who spend all of their time and energy focused on raising their child‚ makes it crystal clear that the characteristics needed to be a good mother‚ at least from my point of view‚ are not completed
