One Secret to Success as a Working Mom: Keep Your Arms Out to Receive Blessings

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. The lesson I have learned recently is that the universe has reminders of the goodness that exists, we just have to look for them.  Life can test us in the most intense ways — and recently I have experienced that intensity. It’s been a season filled with emotional strain, logistical juggling, and moments where I question the laws of physics and fairness. But in the middle of this chaos, I have experienced some extraordinary, blessings that embodied grace-- when I least expected it.

Summer Beach Life

Family at the beach, Destin, Fla.


Currently, I am enjoying my second get away of the summer. It's a girls' trip with me and my daughter. We're traveling to Puerto Rico to celebrate her Godfather's birthday. It's also a celebration of her in some respects.
She's accepted to the local performing arts school for dance. She was promoted to sixth grade. And, she's a great help with her brothers. 

We're really excited. So, contrary to the last post, we don't have to wait till we visit the Outerbanks to enjoy the beach. Don't know what I was thinking when I wrote that last post!
