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.

Wordless Wednesday: Watching TV (#dontjudgeme)



I know there are reports that suggest the television is the first step towards the crack pipe. However,  I don't believe it.
I spent many years watching TV with my grandmother and I turned out fine. And instead of watching cartoons, I watched soap operas! Indeed, I knew more about the characters on Guiding Light" than I knew about my own family. I actually learned the word "prolific" from watching "The Bold and the Beautiful". That's an SAT word! 

Seriously, it's not that I believe in unlimited TV time. It's just that I sometimes need to pluck my kids in front of the TV in order to accomplish some things. How do you think I found time to write this blog post?!

I guess the worse thing that can happen from my kids watching TV is that they may not get into Harvard. I'll just have to tell them that they'll join a long line of family members who didn't attend Harvard...
