One Secret to Success for a Working Mom, Expand Your Village (Jack and Jill of America)

Jack and Jill of America member and her daughter Recently, I have become keenly aware that good kids are created by accident. They become good because someone made a concerted effort to pour positive things into them--things like, honor, discipline and respect for others. These qualities are taught through lessons and by observation. For that reason, I have been actively considering how to give my children more examples of people who embody those qualities.  Indeed, raising my children to become good people is my most important job.

It's My Birthday!!! It's My Birthday!!!



My birthday always reminds me that friendship is the tie that binds. After a certain age, it is entirely voluntary. So exerting the effort to maintain a friendship really needs something.

It always amazes me, and touches me when people remember my birthday. Your birthday is the only day that is uniquely yours. There's no national recognition of it. So, it is made special by the people in your life. They remind you that those whom you love feel that your birth was a blessing to them. And in turn, you are reminded of how special they are to you.

So thank you to all of you who made my birthday special. For all of you blog readers, stay tuned. The next entry will be about the most special birthday memory of them all!
