Better Together: Why Inviting Another Family Makes Activities More Fun #FamilyFun Sometimes family activities can feel like another item on the to-do list. However, doing those activities with another family makes them more fun! Whether it’s a trip to an amusement park , a visit to the local pool , or trip to a pumpkin patch , including another family can multiply the fun in amazing ways. One of my favorite moms to collaborate with is my friend, Ayana Ledford who's pictured above with her daughter Sahar. We have done all of the things listed as seemingly random examples above and here is how including her and her daughter (and sometimes her son too) has made the events more fun. On the date above, Ayana almost left the venue because parking was a nightmare. That said, she hung in there and we would up having a great time!

Springtime in Pittsburgh!

on

Sometimes when your mind is cloudy, a little sunshine is all you need to brighten your mood. Today, Pittsburgh delivered. It was a most beautiful day in Pittsburgh. The sky was blue, the sun was bright. And the birds were chirping. A study just revealed that Southwestern Pennsylvania has a major smog problem. However, the smog was undetectable today.


Indeed, the weather was truly a treat to my soul. It reminded me that while your circumstances may change, you may get disappointed, and relationships may struggle, God continues to show up and surprise you. Life is not defined by transient things. Rather, it is defined by those things that are eternal—nature, goodness, and true love.

Life sometimes distracts us, but we must force ourselves to notice the sunshine. It will make us smile. And it will brighten our days and our hearts.
