Easter Reminded Me of the Miracles That Are My Children

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. 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.

Holiday Memories Make My Heart Sing!

on
Holiday traditions with my older son

Several years ago I collaborated with Macy's on a holiday campaign. Seeing this photo reminded me of how many great opportunities my blog has opened for me. It has expanded my world and allowed me to create such great memories with my family.


I discuss the challenges of doing it all on this blog, a lot. Indeed,  I continue to maintain this platform because I believe that my stories and experience can help inspire others and make a difference. Still, it is important to reflect on the positive as well, especially during the holidays. As my friend, Darlene, said recently, doing so helps us forget the present and focus on the joy! 
A link to the original post, Macy's Reminds Us to Believe Again

This photo helped me do that. It was in the "archives" from the Macy's campaign. It didn't make the cut. However, seeing it now made me smile. It's from the days when we only had two children. We weren't sure if another one was in the cards for us. And, we were spending time getting to know who was our only son at the time. He was then, as he is now, a big ball of love!
