Easter Reminded Me of the Miracles That Are My Children

Greetings from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania! Things have been busy. I am still a working mom of three, working full time who is trying to make a difference. I do a lot of things and try to be present so that I can learn from them. I share them on this blog so that we can learn together. Below are some thoughts, hacks, and/or lessons that I have learned from navigating my world. Below is a tale of my road to becoming the mother of three. It was a road filled with joys and disappointments. However, I wouldn't giving nothing for my journey now. Here's to embracing every step of the journey, even the painful ones, and embracing the lessons learned along the way.

Life Lessons: Be Resilient and Live in The Moment

My baby girl turns one in a week and a half and I can barely stand it.  I am so happy that she is happy and well.  Yes, bloggers she had an encounter with her friend's teeth and has lived to tell about it.  Actually, she hasn't just lived, she's thrived.  (I know that you all knew that would be the outcome, but despite my faith, I needed some reassurance! :-))

Also, she appears to have no recollection of the ordeal and is back to crawling, cruising and exploring. 

It appears that babies are resilient and live in the moment.  They are really unhappy when the crisis is upon them.  However, after that moment passes they move on to bigger and brighter things--a different toy, something new to learn, or they find some way to amuse themselves.

Perhaps we should all try to adopt that approach.  Maybe all of that stuff that we let get on our nerves and the bitterness that we allow to fester ain't that serious.  Perhaps we should adopt the new age approach and "Become the baby!" Hmm... That seems a little silly.  Then again, it can't hurt and might just work. 

Anyway,the photo below was taken when she was about three months old.  It has NOTHING to do with this post.  I just think that it is really cute! Please let me know if you agree!
