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.

Celebrating a Sunny Day in Pittsburgh

on
A sunny day in Pittsburgh


As a working mom, my journey is full of twists and turns, and sometimes tears--generally out of frustration.
There are tears because I stubbed my toe trying to get out the door while carrying a baby and wrangling a toddler.  There are tears because my husband is away and I am alone for an entire weekend just want to use the bathroom without an audience.  There are tears because the worker at my daycare tells me that my baby cries every day at 5:00 PM because, "he's been here a really long time." There are tears when I confront heavy traffic. Hmm ... That sounds like a lot of tears.  Perhaps, it might also be hormones...



Then, there are days like today where I experience a perfect moment. The sun is shining in Pittsburgh, my kids are happy and I am smiling!
