    Time-Saving Tips For Tied-Up Mamas

    Busy bees have got nothing on mothers. There are not enough hours in the day or hands in the house for most mamas to accomplish all of her tasks. While she can't magically add another 60 minutes to her day, she can make it feel like she did with a few of these easy time-saving tips.

    I wonder where all of the fathers are. In lilsugar's world, "mama" is the ultimate martyr, and dads are non-existent. Sad.

    I would be lost without my meal planner and my boyfriend. Like Anon said, I feel that dads should be just as important in a child's life as the mom. I admit that I do make the majority of the decisions regarding our daughter -- but I do all of the research to back them up. But other than that, he is present in her life just as much as I am...he watches her on his two days off while I'm at work. He is one of my biggest organizational tools!
    And again, I can't express enough how my meal planner has saved my life! No more standing aimlessly in front of the fridge wondering what to make!
