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. Below is a tale of my road to becoming the mother of three. It was a road filled with joys and disappointments. However, I wouldn't giving nothing for my journey now. Here's to embracing every step of the journey, even the painful ones, and embracing the lessons learned along the way.

A Peek Into the Life of a Working Mom: Katy Perry Inspires Me and My Toddler

Truthfully, I have weakness for pop music.  As my brother says if it's a song that's popular on the radio, I like it.  That's probably why I buy the "NOW This is Music CDs".  NOW This is Music 48 include Katy Perry's "Roar" as the Number One song.  That decision changed my life, literally.

One day, I was in the car with my kids and played the CD. My kids are 3 and 4 months.  So, it can be challenging to find something we all enjoy.  To be fair, the baby is fairly easy to please.  But the toddler is a different story! Roar gave us something to enjoy together.  She calls it "Oh, Oh, Oh"! 

While I was on maternity leave I was able to take my daughter to camp and pick her up. I enjoyed this immensely and we started a new routine.  We would sing "our song", "Roar" on the way there and on the way home. I wish I had the camera that seems to follow the Kardashians everywhere so that you could fully appreciate the experience. However, since I don't, I simply encourage you to imagine those in the photo below belting out these lyrics,

I got the eye of the tiger, a fighter, dancing through the fire
'Cause I am a champion and you’re gonna hear me roar
Louder, louder than a lion
'Cause I am a champion and you’re gonna hear me roar
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
You’re gonna hear me roar
