One Secret to a Working Mom Success: Celebrate the Seasons With Traditions

on
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. "Family traditions counter alienation and confusion. They help us define who we are; they provide something steady, reliable and safe in a confusing world."— Susan Lieberman   Traditions have a way of defining a family, provide stability and give hope. They are especially important for woking moms who spend so much time working to provide for their family that they may miss some of the "traditional" mom things like bake sales, volunteering at the book fair, and a host of actual and seemingly made up holidays.  They are also important for families trying to reinvent themselves in the wake of d...

My Life...

Thank you for reading my blog. While I love writing it, I do hope that others read it and enjoy it.

If you're seeking a dose of Chaton that has been unrealized, check out http://ezinearticles.com. Some topics are too complex for Chaton's world, but they will give you insight into my life, hopes, and dreams.

By way of example, if I randomly reference the country of Sweden, know that I do it, with authority, at least vicariously... For instance, I know that the Swedes are sexually liberal. And for those suspicious types, this is not just because I embrace any culture that embraces the sexual equality of women...

I have three ties to Sweden, unusual for a little Black girl from Rochester, New York. My mother and aunt have visited there to attend a wedding. I have a friend who works for Cover Girl cosmetics who is there now. And, because I am open to finding love whereever I might find it, I have dated a Black Soccer Player from South Carolina who was previously engaged to a white, Blonde, Swedish girl. Go figure?!

I'd tell you why they broke up, but I shall restrain myself. Besides, this is my story! If "Clyde" and the Swede want folks to know those details, they should start their own blog... :-)

Until next times, thank you for visiting my world...
