One Secret to Success as a Working Mom: Remember Kids Will Be Kids

on
At Atria's I have SO many incomplete blog posts that it's laughable. They're incomplete because I'll start writing them and then life happens. They're incomplete because in between my inspiration for the post and editing it, I realized that I had a sponsored post to complete. They're incomplete because some national event took precedence. They're incomplete because I realized that we needed milk, eggs, or some other essential and I just forgot about it. There are so many explanations about why they're incomplete that I could devote an entire series of posts to that.

A Working Mom Weekend: A trip to Galleria Mall (Part I)

on
Like most working moms I try to make the most of my weekends.  I try to make my kids realize that all mommies are engaged, whether they work outside the home or not.

The only problem with that is it puts a lot of pressure on me to make the weekends special.  As I plan, I sometimes forget that special to my kids may mean something different.

Today,  special to them meant sleeping in the car...


We were headed to Winter Picnic & Kids Expo at Galleria Mall. I made a wrong turn though. So it took a long time to get there.  By the time we arrived, both kids were asleep. So, "special" became me working on a book chapter and them sleeping in the back seat. I had to make the most of it!
