One Secret to Success as a Working Mom: Keep Your Arms Out to Receive Blessings

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. The lesson I have learned recently is that the universe has reminders of the goodness that exists, we just have to look for them.  Life can test us in the most intense ways — and recently I have experienced that intensity. It’s been a season filled with emotional strain, logistical juggling, and moments where I question the laws of physics and fairness. But in the middle of this chaos, I have experienced some extraordinary, blessings that embodied grace-- when I least expected it.

Working Mom Tip: Save at The Pittsburgh Children's Museum!!! (#PGHKIDS)

We have a membership to the Children's Museum and it more than pays for itself. Indeed, it is among the best money that I have ever spent.  In exchange for the cost of the membership my daughter has made countless memories and experienced a million smiles!
 

The Magic of the Children's Museum

 
The management plans carefully to implement programming that educates and engages children. My daughter goes there several days a week and LOVES it! Recently they created a Clifford, the Big Red Dog exhibit. Among other things the exhibit has Clifford himself, live and in color. Nothing makes a kid happier than a big red cartoon character live and in person. As you can see from my daughter's face below, she is smitten by Clifford (perhaps less so with the camera though... :-))
 
If you don't have a membership and would like to save on your next visit, check out this deal from Groupon! SAVE at the Children's Museum
