Easter Reminded Me of the Miracles That Are My Children

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. Below is a tale of my road to becoming the mother of three. It was a road filled with joys and disappointments. However, I wouldn't giving nothing for my journey now. Here's to embracing every step of the journey, even the painful ones, and embracing the lessons learned along the way.

Twitter Tuesday!

I know that it’s like I am playing peekaboo with Twitter Tuesday.  Sometimes you look for it and it just isn’t there!  The past couple of days I was distracted a bit.  I was preparing a guest post for another blog http://dianereiter.com and neglected my own. (Super thrilled to be a guest blogger though!)  Also, it was a rare warm winter day in Pittsburgh.  So, last night the baby and went for a walk.  And we had the best time!
A few weeks ago, when we returned to work after the holidays, Tuesday came and went without a posting. I was confused and missed posting an entry because I thought it was Monday. My confusion lasted all week.  This time I remembered as soon as I woke up today and said, “tell me it’s not Wednesday!” 
Nobody answered.

Perhaps I'm the only working mom who sometimes confuses her days, but I don't think so. I think that most moms are doing the best that they can in the midst of laundry, dishes, and trying to brush their teeth.  They are doing all those things that I mentioned on Monday in my “Time Flies When You Have a Toddler” piece. I used to be judgmental when I saw them out and about looking a bit frazzled.  Now, I don’t judge them. 
Moms do everything that everyone else does plus more than a little more.  The Toddler mom deserves her own place in heaven!  

Moms do heroic deeds. They sacrifice. They clean up all sorts of smelly, slimy things.  They deserve medals. They deserve medals and a day reserved in their honor. Wait, I guess moms did get a day, it’s in May.  Still, we need more. Until we get it, check out the ladies listed below. They are more than heroic.  They’re Tweeters!  You don’t have to give them a medal, but send them a message on Twitter and tell them that @chatonsworld sent you!
