Easter Reminded Me of the Miracles That Are My Children

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.

The election results were surprising to many, including me. They also had me feeling a little lost. It was and is unclear to me how a candidate who ran a campaign filled with insults, angry speech, and racist comments won the majority of electoral votes and became our president. I understand that he had a simple message, “Make American Great Again” that resonated with people. However, I am surprised that the majority of Americans believe that his views actual express how they define great.


Like many women I questioned many things, including how to interpret the results and how I could continue to shoot for the stars when a woman who had exceeded every qualification needed for serving as president wasn’t selected for the job. I will continue to ponder these questions. However, I believe that the answer won’t be found in simply thinking. The answer will be found in doing. For me, that will start with making my bed every day.  The little things can make all of the difference...
