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. On the date above, Ayana almost left the venue because parking was a nightmare. That said, she hung in there and we would up having a great time!

Wordless Wednesday! (#WorkingMom)

A normal work day!

I had a meeting downtown yesterday morning. I am proud that I managed to see our daughter off to school with a lunch and permission slip in hand. I also made it to the meeting on time and contributed. If you happened to see someone who looked like me running fast to make the train, I'll deny it.

Anyway, I was able to stop home after the meeting and got to see my son. It was a welcome treat that we both enjoyed. So I thought I'd share!
