Staying at home with your kids as a mom could be a fantastic experience every mother will be so happy to do.
But due to financial pressure, most mothers find this challenging to do.
The few full-time stay-at-home moms also face this financial problem either for some emergency or for daily upkeep.
Luckily, there is a way out.
I, for instance, was a full-time stay-at-home mom. It was fun until I was running out of money, and I was so bored that I needed to be doing something while still taking care of my kids.
This was how my blogging journey began, and it has been fun from then till now.
