Surprises in motherhood. <\/strong><\/p>\n“The first thing that surprised me was the lack of sleep — I didn\u2019t realize I would be so fatigued! I also never knew how much love I would have for Cree; it is just so overwhelming and over pouring, and so unconditional! The last thing is that I didn\u2019t realize how fast they grow! By the time you buy a pair of shoes, they can only wear it once or twice before it\u2019s time to go get them another pair.”<\/p>\n
Balancing home life with work life.<\/strong><\/p>\n“I don\u2019t know if you can ever find balance — it\u2019s a constant ongoing struggle. I take everything an hour at a time, and a day at a time. I also try not to get too overwhelmed. Having a calendar or something you can write things down on has also been a life saver.”<\/p>\n
Personal time for Tia.<\/strong><\/p>\n“[My husband and I] make time to go out to eat. It\u2019s so funny, a lot of people say ‘date night’ but when you have a child that wakes up at 5 o\u2019clock in the morning, it\u2019s hard to go out at night. We try to do a lot of lunch dates — if one of us isn\u2019t working or is on our break, we\u2019ll definitely meet up for lunch.”<\/p>\n
A special Mother’s Day wish.<\/strong><\/p>\n“That both my son and myself and my family continue to stay healthy and happy. I think it\u2019s rather simple, but sometimes the most simple things in life are the best things that we need.”<\/p>\n
Tia and husband Cory Hardict are proud parents of son Cree, one in June.<\/p>\n
