One Secret to Success as a Working Mom: Keep Your Arms Out to Receive Blessings

on
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. The lesson I have learned recently is that the universe has reminders of the goodness that exists, we just have to look for them.  Life can test us in the most intense ways — and recently I have experienced that intensity. It’s been a season filled with emotional strain, logistical juggling, and moments where I question the laws of physics and fairness. But in the middle of this chaos, I have experienced some extraordinary, blessings that embodied grace-- when I least expected it.

A Bit of Trivia: Today is National Lemonade Day!

Today is "National Lemonade Day"! The tag line for National Lemonade Day is “Empowering Today’s Youth to Become Tomorrow’s Entrepreneurs.” So, the Day has more to do with entrepreneurship and empowerment than it does about perfecting the art of making lemonade. Still, as anyone who has studied marketing understands, “product” is one of the foundational principles. In this context it means that without tasty lemonade, a lemonade stand isn’t going to do too well.

(I’m ignoring the “cute factor” principle that says a cute kid can sell almost anything.)
