One Secret to Success as a Working Mom: Keep Your Arms Out to Receive Blessings

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. The lesson I have learned recently is that the universe has reminders of the goodness that exists, we just have to look for them.  Life can test us in the most intense ways — and recently I have experienced that intensity. It’s been a season filled with emotional strain, logistical juggling, and moments where I question the laws of physics and fairness. But in the middle of this chaos, I have experienced some extraordinary, blessings that embodied grace-- when I least expected it.

This is my blog, I'll share if I want to...


It's hard out here for a blogger... Lately, I have caught a little flack because of information contained in this blog from a variety of sources. I have been accused of revealing too much, revealing too little, revealing the “wrong types of things”. I have even been asked, “what exactly did happen in San Francisco?!”

I am sure that the messengers thought their comments would dissuade me. However, the biggest compliment that you can pay a writer is to read her work. All I could think was, "Geez, are people really interested enough in what I write to get upset about it?!" I got energized. I got giddy. And, as you can see, I've kept writing.

So, thanks to all of you who come to Chaton's World and enjoy it. Thanks to you who keep coming back, but don't know why. And thanks to you who have given me such "constructive" criticism.

Y'all come back now, ya here! There’s so much more in store!
