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.

A boy and his trains at the beach

This photo captures a few of my obsessions, my son, the beach, and sunshine.
My son is obsessed with trains so his obsession is captured as well. You may be thinking, "Doesn't she have other kids???" The answer of course is yes. We have two more. Like I told my daughter, I am unequivocally and equally obsessed with each of them. The other two just aren't in this photo! :-) Stay tuned though, they all get featured on this blog.
If you have visited this blog before, you know I love a vacation! (If you're considering taking one, here are some tips--Working Mom Tip: Five Tips to Prepare for Vacation)
