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

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 Words of Wisdom: Love is All You Need

Baby smiles

"All you need is love, love, love is all you need!"-The Beatles 

In life one confronts a host of trials and tribulations. For that reason, eventually everybody seeks understanding. What I know for sure is that love is the answer to most questions. 

And, I want my children to learn that lesson too.

This photo of my sister, Jeryn, and new son embodies love at its most pure. Indeed, she loves my kids as her own and always have. Her love makes me a better mom. She brings fun when I am fatigued--literally. She is the one responsible for the baby's first smiles. And if history holds true, she will continue to be the one who shows him that life is full of adventure and that the love of his family will be on that journey with him.
