One Secret to a Working Mom Success: Make Family Events More Enjoyable With Friends

Better Together: Why Inviting Another Family Makes Activities More Fun #FamilyFun Sometimes family activities can feel like another item on the to-do list. However, doing those activities with another family makes them more fun! Whether it’s a trip to an amusement park , a visit to the local pool , or trip to a pumpkin patch , including another family can multiply the fun in amazing ways. One of my favorite moms to collaborate with is my friend, Ayana Ledford who's pictured above with her daughter Sahar. We have done all of the things listed as seemingly random examples above and here is how including her and her daughter (and sometimes her son too) has made the events more fun. On the date above, Ayana almost left the venue because parking was a nightmare. That said, she hung in there and we would up having a great time!

Celebrity Sightings: An Interview With Mr. E! The Motivator

I had the sincere pleasure of meeting Mr. E! The Motivator at Parents Palooza. I also had the opportunity to hear him move the crowd. 

Although Mr. E! does not wear stilettos he is an example for us all about how to achieve balance and achieve our dreams.
 

Mr. E! is a dad living his dream.

 
He is a dad and a high school counselor.  He also describes himself as the best motivational speaker around and his time at the microphone did not disappoint. He has an ingenious way of infusing motivational messages into rap music. The messages are designed to educate and entertain. His mission is to motivate students to value education, stay in school and achieve their dreams. As you can see from this video, he is the right person to deliver that message.

Enjoy the video!!!
