Celebrating Black Maternal Health Week #BMHW25

on
Mom and three kids 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. Black Maternal Health Week April 11-17, 2025 I am a Black mom to three wonderful children. I was blessed to have three successful births. While I am an attorney, my third delivery highlighted the potential risks that occur when a physician fails to listen to the birthing person.

It's not my preference, but I don't want my followers to suffer because of my technical difficulties!

I never had a dog as a kid. So, I was never used the "dog ate my homework" excuse.  And I know that excuse is generally disbelieved.  I now have empathy for those kids. It is a royal pain to work on something only to have it destroyed by something you love.

(Yeah, I do still love my iPad.  However, it was bad so it's not getting any treats, like that Tory Burch sleeve I've been eyeing! :-))
