One Secret to Success as a Working Mom: Learn How to Overcome Mistakes

on
Boy enjoying Millie's ice cream!  #ParentingLessons 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. We have had quite a few two hour weather delays this school year. Generally, they are standard--albeit inconvenient. However, one stands out because it taught me an important lesson, "Trust but verify".

Wednesday Wisdom: Celebrate, even if you have to coordinate it yourself!

 Memorial Day fashion

On Memorial Day, I decided to have a cookout that I would organize myself. Usually, when we host cookouts, I make the sides, season the meat and Andre grills it. However, this year, he had to work. So, I decided to proceed on my own. 

 The food was good.
Indeed, I managed to make veggie burgers, homemade guacamole, homemade chip dip, two kinds of chicken, hot dogs, pasta salad, grilled asparagus, fried corn and broccoli salad. Doesn't that chicken below make you salivate?! 


However, I am most pleased that I managed to cook it all and not get anything on my white jeans. Pure talent (and lots of luck)!
