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.

Wordless Wednesday: Celebrating the Holidays at the Pittsburgh Children's Museum #PghKids

As I have mentioned before, one of our favorite things to do as a family is to visit the Pittsburgh Children's Museum. The kids enjoy it because it's a virtual child wonderland--full of toys and activities designed to stimulate and inspire children of various ages. Parents like it because it is manageable. It's large enough to have a variety of activities. However, it is small enough that there's little danger of actually losing a child. It's  a lot of fun too!

Recently, we were fortunate enough to get invited to the Museum for a holiday party. The party started at 8:00 AM, which proved hard for us to make. However, we made it there before the photographer left. That gave us the opportunity to enjoy the exhibits and get some great photos. (Mommy Score!!!)

Hope you enjoy the photos as much I have!!!
