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.

Free Event: Pittsburgh Children's Festival

Come by Schenley Park for the Children's Festival. It's free and lots of fun for the kids.

Our daughter was singing and dancing and playing. That is until the meltdown... We can't blame the meltdown on the Children's Festival though. Her parents are to blame.

We took her out at nap time to attend the drum show. At first she was scared. The music was loud and the lights were flashing. I don't know what she was thinking, but she needed some time to process it. Once she got into the groove she started to feel it!

Let it be known. My daughter likes to move! The next thing we knew she had run up front and started dancing! She developed a fan base.

One woman came up to me and said, " she's found her calling!"

I think we may have a rising star on our hands, or at least a girl who likes to dance!

Make your way down soon. The festival ends tomorrow!

If you go, check out the Mirazozo exhibit. It's this peaceful light exhibit. It's a great experience, very Zen. We all enjoyed it. Be forewarned though. You have to take off your shoes before you enter the exhibit. I'll try to upload some photos soon! Mirazozo
