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.

A Peek Into the Life of a Mommy Blogger: Being Profiled in Mommy Noire Magazine

As I mentioned recently, one of the things that I love about being a mommy blogger is the love and support that I have received from other bloggers. Blogging seems to attract moms who are generous and interested in forging a virtual community. Some of my blogging relationships have even turned into friendships.
 

Check me out in Mommy Noire Magazine

 
One such friend is Heather Hopson from "Diary of a First Time Mom". As I recently mentioned, Heather recently hosted a lunch and learn with The Motherhood that was a great event. Also, it turns out she included me in a recent post she wrote for "Mommy Noire Magazine" entitled, "11 Mom Bloggers You Should Bookmark"      http://mommynoire.com/36468/best-black-mom-blogs/4/.  Being included in this post was a pleasant surprise and immediately increased my number of page views! Also, I was happy to learn that reading my blog had been helpful to Heather while she was pregnant.
 
Thanks Heather!!!
