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!

Wordless Wednesday: A Working Mom at the Bus Stop (and why this post was late)

Time at the bus stop
Today I had a real treat. I was able to meet my daughter as she got off of the bus. As a full time working mom, greeting her at the bus stop is something that I often miss. So, I was thrilled to be able to do it today. From the look on her face, she was thrilled too!

This post was prepared on Wednesday, but not posted until Thursday because I fell asleep on my couch with my laptop and neglected to hit send. Has something like that ever happened to you when you were going to post a blog post, buy an airline ticket, or be the first one to score tickets to an important event, etc.??? Please tell me I'm not alone!
