Gabrielle Taduran: mom. TOPSHOP

We are so caught up with our busy lives, working so hard to have a comfortable home, lifestyle and get those things that make life more enjoyable. We always look forward to spend weekend with family and friends. We always try to make the most of it. I don't enjoy weekend as much as the other because I've got a different day off..hehehe

My day off doesn't fall on Saturday and Sunday, but I tried to be a super mom during the weekend because my son is at home. I don't wanna miss important milestones of his growing up years. Sometimes spending an hour or two just talking about nonsense felt like the most important part of your day.

Simple acts like going to the mall, biking, eating, enjoying Saturday 'movie day' in our bedroom—even brushing our teeth together before bedtime—help strengthen our family's bond.

Admittedly, it's more easy being single, but it's rewarding being a mom. I may not enjoy Saturdays and Sundays with my son, but I'll make a conscious effort to be their for him during these days.

Being a busy mom doesn't give you the excuse to dress poorly. Always take care of yourself. That's a rule of thumb. Never forget about "YOU." It may be the last on your to do list, atleast you made an effort to always take care of yourself, right girls?
