One Secret to Success for a Working Mom, Expand Your Village (Jack and Jill of America)

Jack and Jill of America member and her daughter Recently, I have become keenly aware that good kids are created by accident. They become good because someone made a concerted effort to pour positive things into them--things like, honor, discipline and respect for others. These qualities are taught through lessons and by observation. For that reason, I have been actively considering how to give my children more examples of people who embody those qualities.  Indeed, raising my children to become good people is my most important job.

Living by faith...

on
Some people in my life have been going through rough times. I have realized the importance of having faith. It is something that you can rely upon when you have run out of other options.

Faith makes you get up in the morning with the expectation that things will get better, even in the midst of your pain and disappointment. Faith makes you believe that the best is yet to come even when you cannot see the possibility of things getting any better.

I know these things intuitively, but I must admit that at times, my faith is still tested. Sometimes, I am distracted by what I see.

At those times, the faith of those that I love has strengthened me. And for that, I am grateful.  I am especially grateful this holiest of all weekends.

It is a Good Friday!
