New mom Katy Perry opened up about being a working mama and the popular misconception of maternity leave.

After bringing home her baby girl Daisy Bloom, Katy understands that being a mom is a full-time job and taking maternity leave is not taking “time-off”.

In the spirit of being a new mom, Katy wanted to show love and appreciation for all the mama’s out there!

…and of course some appreciation to her work.
