One Secret to Success as a Working Mom: Stay Open to New Experiences

In the movie Love Jones , the male lead says, "romance is about the possibility of the thing." I agree with that. However, I think that the concept is more universal. life--truly living--is about the possibility of the thing. For a while, I was sleep walking through life, doing what was required without truly embracing it. Recent events have caused me to re-evaluate that and to embrace life and all of its limitless possibilities.   And romance, is about love. Over the past year I have become committed to falling back in love with my life. New relationships have made that love affair possible. And, I don't take them for granted. Creating space for new relationships and making new friends as a single, working mom, and creating space is not easy. But it is necessary.

Beyonce, One Working Mom Who Rocked the Super Bowl (#SuperBowl47)

I celebrate working moms on this blog. And today Beyoncé is my favorite working mom. She rocked the halftime show at the Super Bowl. The first half was filled with explosive football and it was punctuated by Beyoncé’s performance.

I’ve been a Beyoncé fan for years. And I have never been prouder of B that I was this evening. She put all of the doubters who questioned her skills after the inauguration to shame. However, more than that, her performance was a triumph for all moms.

You Can Be A Mom and Be Hot!!!

 

Everyone knows that Beyoncé is gorgeous and talented. However she absolutely dominated the stage. She sang and danced in front of over 100 million people and showed no fear. And she looked hot doing it! She didn't look hot for a mom. She looked hot for anybody!



I know that she’s a professional and gets paid to do look good. I also know she’s rich and famous and probably had lots of help to get to this point. Still, I have to give her props. Her daughter is barely a year old. And she looks better than ever. She also moved like she never skipped a beat.  
So, I celebrate Beyoncé as a working mom today. And, I might just have a bit of a girl crush. I am also committed to "keeping it tight" so that if anybody is ever looking for an attorney to strut her stuff in some black leather hot pants, I'll be ready!!! :-)

She put it down! Loved her performance. It was so nice to see Destiny's Child reunited for that brief moment. I hope they reunite more during her Mrs Carter tour coming up!
