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.

There's a lot that I would like to share about my birth experience and what happened next. However,  I am still playing catch up. Delivering two weeks early threw my schedule for a loop. I'd tell you about it, but haven't got the time. Don't worry, soon I will.  Until then,  know that I am in a blissful,  sleep deprived haze...
