Better Together: Why Inviting Another Family Makes Activities More Fun #FamilyFun Sometimes family activities can feel like another item on the to-do list. However, doing those activities with another family makes them more fun! Whether it’s a trip to an amusement park , a visit to the local pool , or trip to a pumpkin patch , including another family can multiply the fun in amazing ways. One of my favorite moms to collaborate with is my friend, Ayana Ledford who's pictured above with her daughter Sahar. We have done all of the things listed as seemingly random examples above and here is how including her and her daughter (and sometimes her son too) has made the events more fun. On the date above, Ayana almost left the venue because parking was a nightmare. That said, she hung in there and we would up having a great time!

Working Moms Never Forget, The Best is Yet to Come

Beach Photo: Enjoying a day on Lake Erie

I don't know about you, but sometimes I need extra encouragement,  especially on Mondays! Today, my encouragement came from a couple of old TV shows--"Behind the Music" and Lifetime Intimate Portraits". 

They were series where celebrities shared their lives and career trajectories with viewers. I'm nosey by nature. So, I have always been a voracious reader of biographies and TV shows like these are my jam too. And because I have watched a lot of them, I have had time to reflect on the ultimate lesson. And, here is what I have concluded.

Life, in its infinite complexity will get better, if you remember to never ever give up. It is that simple. You have to put one foot in front of the other. Keep moving towards your identified goals.  

Don't give up. 

The weather will get better. The sun will shine brighter. The sky will clear up. And your situation will improve. So, let's keep walking together into the sunshine, even if we don't see it, we shall keep walking until it comes.
