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!

A Working Mom's Ode to Fall...

Boots, the best thing about Fall...
My daughter's preschool learned a poem that goes:

Winter 
Spring

It's reminds me of a piece I wrote about Fall (my favorite season for fashion) last year. I wanted to share it before the season ended and we entered my least favorite season. I actually don't know if Winter is anybody's favorite season, unless they're a penguin...
