The alarm goes off and I slowly roll out of bed and stumble towards the bathroom. I struggle to keep my eyes open as I make my way into my closet to throw clothes on. I’m not ready to be out of bed. I’d rather be sleeping. But like any other day, or really all the days, there is breakfast to make, lunches to pack, backpacks to ready, teeth brushing, bed making, dressing, hair brushing, and shuffling everyone out the door for work and school. It’s just another day in the life of a mom- or more specifically this mom.
It might sound like it could be a day like any other mom’s, but the beauty of motherhood is no two moms have quite the same set-up, kids, duties and schedules. Every mom’s day is unique just as every mom is unique.
Over the next week I’ll be sharing snaps of my daily life as a mom, chef, and driver to two fun girls as I team up with Cascadian Farm to celebrate Mother’s Day. Cascadian Farm is encouraging moms to celebrate Mother’s Day- and the days leading up to it- by sharing pictures from their own unique lives using the #momselfie hashtag. Keep an eye out for my #momselfies on Instagram, Twitter, or Facebook in the coming days and share your’s too. I’ll be on the lookout for a taste of what your life as a mom looks like through your #momselfie collection too!
In the mean time Cascadian Farm is offering an awesome packed and tasty filled giveaway for one Evolving Motherhood reader! The winner will receive…
Cascadian Farm Buzz Crunch Honey Almond Cereal, Oats & Honey Crunchy bars, and both flavors of the Chewy Bars with organic pea protein. Cascadian Farm swag, including water bottle, notebook and tote bag. Samples of Happy Baby Organic Baby Food Greek Yogurt. That’ a whole lot of goodness folks!
Awesome right?! Your hungry family will appreciate this bundle of goodies. We’re loving the new peanut butter chocolate chip Chewy Bar protein bars. They are so good and don’t leave a funny aftertaste in your mouth like other protein bars do. My protein loving Luke is a fan.

I love the new protein bars, really good to take on a long bike ride.
Exactly. So yummy!
I love that my kids come into my room when it is time to get up and we get a few minutes of snuggling in. This is one of those times when I learn about things going on in their lives outside of the home. I know it won’t last forever, but I am going to hang on to it as long as I can!
That sounds like the perfect start to the day, Jen.
my husband and our son give me big hugs and kisses
What makes me unique (maybe) is that I have four kids!
We have a family reading time right before bed and we always, no matter what, say “I love you”
I get to listen to my husband and kids laughing hysterically at The Three Stooges and other classics. We enjoy raising them with clean, timeless entertainment and it feels special for us.
We play family game night 3 times a week 🙂
We live naturally and grow a lot of our own food.
the 2 busy boys i have to deal with
I am a stay at home mom of 4. My kids range from 18yrs old to 2 yrs old. We are busy but it sure is fun! What makes us unique is that we eat as clean as we can while staying on a budget.
Well, I’m not a parent yet! So my day is pretty different from a parent’s day.
I’m not a parent just yet but I’m going to make sure we have family dinner time every night and reading bedtimes stories nightly. That in addition to lots of hugs and I love you’s! =)
I get to spend the day with my children and know their personalities and how to make them happy. I know their loves of food!
My day is unique because my kiddo and I have VERY different interests! It is hard to balance my interests and hers without taking away from her individuality!
I’m not a parent, but I help other friends with their kiddos!
I go to school full time while I am being a mommy to both my kids!
I start each day letting the geese ducks and chickens out!
I have a 17 year old daughter who is an amazing kid and cook. She makes all our meals and I just need to clean up after!!
Nothing. It’s the same old day, day in and day out!
My husband makes me a green smoothie every morning!
I think every parents day is unique as they all have a different set of circumstances and scenarios to get around. I am a grandmother helping raise my grandchildren.
I am able to work from home, so that definitely makes my day unique compared to other parents.
My day is unique since I enjoy it.
My day is unique because i wake with a positive attitude
We get together for dinner every Sunday as a big extended family
we have a unique family in general.
This was a super fun giveaway! I liked having an excuse to do the selfies because I dont do it very often. Thank you!!!
We are all very open andd accepting
We always eat at the dinner table for supper. Most parents don’t do that these days.
I think that our personalities and sense of humor make us unique.
