/*
[ [ { _isAMomentObject: true,
      _i: '01-01-2015',
      _f: 'DD-MM-YYYY',
      _isUTC: false,

      _pf: [...],
      _locale: [...],
      _d: Fri Jan 02 2015 00:00:00 GMT-0600 (CST) }
  ],
  [...]
]
*/

monthNaturalWeeks()

It's like monthBusinessWeeks(), but this method will include weekends on it's response.

The objects returned by functions are momentjs objects (except isBusinessDay) so you can handle it with moment native functions.

businessDiff()
