I’m a working from home mom who is thinking to go back to work outside. I’m a travel agent, and my business has no days or hours if I want to be successful, specially now with websites like expedia and internet discount bookings.

I love music myself, I have to listen to music almost daily. Because I used to play piano, I love classics, specialty Mozart. When I was pregnant with my son I used to listen to classical music, I had a small headphone and used to put it on my belly so he could listen well. The music would calm him.
