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: A Girls' Trip

Me and the Dallas crew

Last weekend my daughter and I took a girls' trip. No boys were allowed. So, we left daddy and the baby at home in pursuit of fun and fellowship with her god mother and god sisters in Dallas, Texas. Our trip had some twists and turns. We left a day later, spent night at the airport Hyatt and a toilet was clogged. (Intentional use of the passive voice to protect the culprit! :-))  Ah adventures...

I love my time with my entire family, but this girls' trip was truly special. Seeing my daughter enjoy her extended family, seeing them embrace her, and feeling the love shared by all was an awesome experience. Still smiling...
