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.

Springtime in Pittsburgh!


Sometimes when your mind is cloudy, a little sunshine is all you need to brighten your mood. Today, Pittsburgh delivered. It was a most beautiful day in Pittsburgh. The sky was blue, the sun was bright. And the birds were chirping. A study just revealed that Southwestern Pennsylvania has a major smog problem. However, the smog was undetectable today.


Indeed, the weather was truly a treat to my soul. It reminded me that while your circumstances may change, you may get disappointed, and relationships may struggle, God continues to show up and surprise you. Life is not defined by transient things. Rather, it is defined by those things that are eternal—nature, goodness, and true love.

Life sometimes distracts us, but we must force ourselves to notice the sunshine. It will make us smile. And it will brighten our days and our hearts.
