VOORHEES, New Jersey (WPVI) -- In today's "Morning Moms," many of us are struggling to fight pandemic burnout, but a family from Voorhees, New Jersey is still going strong while juggling parenting and working.

Blair Manus and her husband are parents to two young girls, 18-month-old Pepper and three-and-half-year-old Sia.

The parents both have full time jobs and, despite working from home, Blair has been able to grow her marketing business.

But she admits it is a challenge finding a balance, while keeping the family safe.

"It's hard. You feel that mom guilt. But we're doing our best. We're trying to enrich the kids and give them the best time that we can and have so much fun while keeping everybody safe. So working full time, and keeping my customers happy, and giving 100% to my job and then giving 100% to the kids isn't easy, but we're doing our best," Blair said.

Much of the family's time at home has been filled with dance parties, dress up, and even a quarantine Halloween scavenger hunt.
