One Secret to Success as a Working Mom: Learn How to Overcome Mistakes

Boy enjoying Millie's ice cream!  #ParentingLessons 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. We have had quite a few two hour weather delays this school year. Generally, they are standard--albeit inconvenient. However, one stands out because it taught me an important lesson, "Trust but verify".

S'mores and Other Fall Traditions


It is October! It's hard to believe that summer is officially behind us and fall is here. One reason it's hard to believe is that it remains quite warm. It's so warm that I long to be poolside in Pittsburgh--daily. That said, the nights are cooler. They are just cool enough to begin firing up the fire pit to enjoy long talks, cuddles and sweet treats like s'mores. 

Enjoying S'mores Makes Everything Better

When I think about enjoying s'mores, it makes me smile! And, as you can see from the photo above, they have the same affect on my kid.

Indeed, 'mores are universally awesome! I don't know about you, but even in these gluten free, low fat, high protein times, I still enjoy a good s'more. I don't know if it's nostalgia, the communal aspect of it, or the fact that they taste so damn good. Whatever it is, I am officially declaring this, "S'mores Season"!

So, light a fire and celebrate!!!
