What day is it? What time is it? What kid needs to go where today? Am I awake or dreaming right now? If you're asking yourself these questions on a regular basis, it's clear you're a mom.

Being a parent and transitioning from no kids to one or multiple is a huge life change. Can you imagine living like that movie Cheaper by the Dozen? As one of the kids, sure.

It's what comes with the territory of being a mom! 

Being a mom changes literally everything. If you are lucky enough to embark on this journey and have made the decision to become a parent, you realize how much it means to have brought this life into the world. At the end of the day, your new job title of "mom" is the one that truly matters.
