A Window Opens: A Novel | Elisabeth Egan

I could relate so much to the main character who was trying to “do it all.” Being a working mom with a demanding job, taking care of a sick parent, managing her husband‘s and her own mental health, the list goes on. I have so many roles and end most of my days literally exhausted. I wish this one had a bit more substance to grab on to, but overall I give it 3.5 ⭐️ #motherhood #marriage #workingmom

The Valley of Horses | Jean M. Auel

The dogs and I are chilling before a busy day. I have the kids today with the hubby in the field. So, first karate classes and then into the lab to check on my assays and culture. Hopefully, they let me get some work done. #readingtorelax #workingmom

BookaholicNatty @microbemom How is that book? I have heard great things about this entire series. I want to read The Clan of the Cave Bear. That‘s the first book in the series right? (edited) 6y
MicrobeMom @BookaholicNatty I love Clan of the Cave Bear (1st book in the series). This is book 2 and I just started it this morning. So far so good. Picks up where 1 left off. I would recommend the first. It is about pre-historic humans which sounds boring but isn‘t. 6y
TheSpineView I read the whole series and loved them all. At some point I will reread them. 6y
MicrobeMom @TheSpineView I really enjoyed the first one. Excitingly reading the rest! 6y

Delightful, gorgeous picture book bio of author and artist Virginia Lee Burton. Animated portayal of how she created her now classic storybooks (Mike Mulligan and his steam shovel, etc) for her vehicle loving sons. Inspiring example of an art making mom. The decorative motifs in Katy and the Big Snow make so much sense knowing Burton's work designing textiles. #mommyreads #babyreads #workingmom #bio #artmaking #picturebooks

There‘s no answer here. But this is something I wonder about myself frequently.
