One Secret to Success as a Working Mom: Keep Your Arms Out to Receive Blessings

on
Greetings from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania ! Things have been busy. I am still a working mom of three, working full time who is trying to make a difference. I do a lot of things and try to be present so that I can learn from them. I share them on this blog so that we can learn together. Below are some thoughts, hacks, and/or lessons that I have learned from navigating my world. The lesson I have learned recently is that the universe has reminders of the goodness that exists, we just have to look for them.  Life can test us in the most intense ways — and recently I have experienced that intensity. It’s been a season filled with emotional strain, logistical juggling, and moments where I question the laws of physics and fairness. But in the middle of this chaos, I have experienced some extraordinary, blessings that embodied grace-- when I least expected it.

Wordless Wednesday: Summer Adventures in Pittsburgh

on
Our daughter at PPG Center, Pittsburgh, Pa.

I just LOVE this photo because it truly captures the fun that is possible in Pittsburgh in the summertime!

Indeed, Pittsburgh is a great place to be in the summertime. Because the weather can be crappy, a lot, Pittsburghers seem to enjoy nice days as much or more than folks in other parts of the country. Also, the city really embraces summer. There are countless fountains for kids to run through like the one above. There are also free outdoor events that encourage a sense of community and an appreciation of the outdoors. If you're interested in learning more about upcoming events like some free concerts that are coming up, click here. There are also several concert series in and around Pittsburgh which make summer a great time to party in Pittsburgh, for free! (For a link to the schedule, click here.)

How do you enjoy summer in your town?!
