One Secret to Success as a Working Mom: Remember Kids Will Be Kids

At Atria's I have SO many incomplete blog posts that it's laughable. They're incomplete because I'll start writing them and then life happens. They're incomplete because in between my inspiration for the post and editing it, I realized that I had a sponsored post to complete. They're incomplete because some national event took precedence. They're incomplete because I realized that we needed milk, eggs, or some other essential and I just forgot about it. There are so many explanations about why they're incomplete that I could devote an entire series of posts to that. Instead, I'd like to share a post from several years ago about how my kids messed up my grandmother's birthday dinner...

The weekend is over...


It's football season! In Pittsburgh, today is a day to rejoice. The Steelers won today. They beat the Cleveland Browns 34 to 7.

We are all dancing the jig in Pittsburgh today. While one game does not a season make, it does get us off to a great start.

It is also particularly gratifying to see Mike Tomlin, the Steelers new coach, start the season strong. Tomlin's position as head coach is historic.

He is the first African-American coach that the Steelers have had. Given the limited opportunities afforded to the majority of African-Americans in Pittsburgh it is encouraging to have Pittsburgh's crown jewel coached by a Black man. Hopefully, Tomlin's success will open opportunities for other African-Americans in Pittsburgh.

Sports aren't everything, but like this early Steelers win, hopefully Tomlin's position is a start.
