One Secret to Success for a Working Mom, Expand Your Village (Jack and Jill of America)

Jack and Jill of America member and her daughter Recently, I have become keenly aware that good kids are created by accident. They become good because someone made a concerted effort to pour positive things into them--things like, honor, discipline and respect for others. These qualities are taught through lessons and by observation. For that reason, I have been actively considering how to give my children more examples of people who embody those qualities.  Indeed, raising my children to become good people is my most important job.

Throwback Thursday: New Year's Eve 2014 (#TBT)

One of the highlights of the end of the year was New Year's Eve. Midday we visited the Pittsburgh Children's Museum to see the balloons drop! It's an annual event and a lot of fun.

New Year's Eve, Children's Museum


This is the third year that we have attended. My daughter loves it so much it tires her out, which is a great thing.

All partied out!

We followed up were able our visit to the Children's Museum with an early dinner out with the kids at Eddie Merlot's, which was a great way to start off. 

Eddie Merlot's gives a great presentation and the food is delicious!

We were all dressed for the evening, the kids included and they seemed to enjoy themselves. The baby enjoyed himself so much that he had no interest in remaining in his high chair. Instead, he wanted to roam and to see what the other diners were doing!



Stay tuned to my account of the remainder of our evening at Motown, The Musical!
