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!

Living by faith...

on
Some people in my life have been going through rough times. I have realized the importance of having faith. It is something that you can rely upon when you have run out of other options.

Faith makes you get up in the morning with the expectation that things will get better, even in the midst of your pain and disappointment. Faith makes you believe that the best is yet to come even when you cannot see the possibility of things getting any better.

I know these things intuitively, but I must admit that at times, my faith is still tested. Sometimes, I am distracted by what I see.

At those times, the faith of those that I love has strengthened me. And for that, I am grateful.  I am especially grateful this holiest of all weekends.

It is a Good Friday!
