One Secret to a Working Mom Success: Make Family Events More Enjoyable With Friends

Better Together: Why Inviting Another Family Makes Activities More Fun #FamilyFun Sometimes family activities can feel like another item on the to-do list. However, doing those activities with another family makes them more fun! Whether it’s a trip to an amusement park , a visit to the local pool , or trip to a pumpkin patch , including another family can multiply the fun in amazing ways. One of my favorite moms to collaborate with is my friend, Ayana Ledford who's pictured above with her daughter Sahar. We have done all of the things listed as seemingly random examples above and here is how including her and her daughter (and sometimes her son too) has made the events more fun. On the date above, Ayana almost left the venue because parking was a nightmare. That said, she hung in there and we would up having a great time!

A Peek Into the Life of a Blogger Mom: Sunday night


Sunday night always comes too soon. I may be destined to be a haggard mom on Monday morning. It doesn’t matter if I wake up late, early or on time. It always seems like I woke up one minute and the next minute its midnight. I used to think that it was because I procrastinate. However, I realize it doesn’t matter. Today, I was fairly efficient. I managed to make my house orderly even if it is still not spotless. 

No offense to my neat sister, but spotless homes may be overrated. Perhaps, the more mess you have the more fun you have?  Anyway, I wouldn’t know. I’ve only had a spotless house for about 5 minutes.  There was this one time when everyone was asleep and we weren’t moving or breathing hard and our home was spotless.  Then, we woke up! J
