One Secret to a Working Mom Success: Make Family Events More Enjoyable With Friends

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!

Power to the Mothers!

One of the cool things about having this blog is that I learn about so many interesting things.  And when I learn new things, I like to share them with my blog readers so that they too can be edified! :-)

I recently discovered an organization called, "M.O.T.H.E.R.S." (Mothers Ought to Have Equal Rights).  It is is a netroots community of mothers and other family caregivers who look after children or other dependent family members. It promotes social change to enhance the economic security of those who do carework, both exclusively or in conjunction with paid employment.

I'm not endorsing the organization and I am not affiliated with them.  (I'm a lawyer so you know I have to have a disclaimer.  I can't just say, hey this site is cool check it out like NORMAL people! :-)) Seriously, I like the principle of the organization.  Anybody who is working to support moms, help them become financially secure, and obtain equal rights is alright with me!

I'm not an attorney but after scanning the link you provided, I'd say it looks like a good thing.
I think promoting security is a good goal.
