One Secret to Success for a Working Mom, Expand Your Village (Jack and Jill of America)

Jack and Jill of America member and her daughter Recently, I have become keenly aware that good kids are created by accident. They become good because someone made a concerted effort to pour positive things into them--things like, honor, discipline and respect for others. These qualities are taught through lessons and by observation. For that reason, I have been actively considering how to give my children more examples of people who embody those qualities.  Indeed, raising my children to become good people is my most important job.

A Peek Into the Life of a Blogging Mom: Saturday

Like most working moms I cherish my weekends. This weekend is no different. Well, it is slightly different... Being the dutiful son that he is and a lover if home improvement projects, Andre has committed to redoing his parents front steps. Apparently, there will be crushing the original steps with a sledgehammer, pouring concrete, and creating new steps. I am certain it's more complicated than that, but as you can see, it's a lot of work!

So, what's a blogging mom to do?!

I have to identify activities for me and baby to occupy our time. I also have to figure out how to do the housework alone, unless I go on strike... Hmm... That does have some appeal.

While I contemplate pulling a Norma Ray, I'm going to take the baby to community day at the Carnegie Library in Oakland. I'm actually typing this piece on my iPad as I wait for her to wake up from her brief nap. Let's hope we enjoy our library visit. Guess what?! She's up now. So, we're going in. I'll keep you posted!
