"Working Mom" song

By The Working Mom by Kay Luna, from the     10/26/09 9:50am

Someone named Pat Murphy commented on one of my old blog posts over the weekend, encouraging me to listen to his band's new single, called "Working Mom."

No, it wasn't spam. Murphy is a real person, and he lives in Ireland. His family's band plays there. So, I went to their Web site and checked out the song. If you like country music (which I do), you might like this one - especially if you're a working parent.

Yay for international blog reading!
