Happy Summer!!!

on
Dog Days of Summer have begun Most working moms are exhausted this time of year. The kids are over school. The uniforms have holes in them and the book bags are held together with duct tape. And then, just like that, Memorial Day comes to help us cope with what we have to do. It gives us a reprieve to prepare for the summer--a less structured life filled with longer nights and more fun.

Wordless Wednesday: Why I Work

on
Child on the Pittsburgh North Shore
Yesterday on my Facebook Page I was seeking motivation. I had been thinking about the challenges that people, in particular working moms, have during the workweek. So, I decided to probe my Facebook friends about how they made it through the week. I will share their responses with you because I think you'll find them worthwhile. Of course their responses stimulated my mind as well. I've been working for most of my life and have been a full time working mom for the duration.

I have not paused. I have not fainted. And I have not given up. 

So, I asked myself the question. One thing I realize is that my Wordless Wednesday post is not just a way to fill up space on my blog. The photos are a reminder about why I work. I primarily work to provide for my family and to make them smile. Since we celebrated my son's third birthday last week, I decided to feature him in this post. Even with the challenges, I am grateful to be a working mom every day. And these photos encourage me when I need a reminder of that!
