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 Note to My Daughter on Her Seventh Birthday


Seven years ago you made me a mom and my world has been forever brighter.

Each year you have taught me more about myself and have made my burdens lighter.

This past year, you learned to perform a cartwheel, make salad, and get yourself ready for the day.

Your favorite things to do are to sing Decendants 2 songs, talk with your aunt JT and play.

 You continue to learn, grow, love, and improve how you read.

My hopes and expectations, you continue to exceed.

Your greatest joy is to cuddle and to get a long hug.

The purity of your emotions has taught me so much about how to love.

Every day my world is made better by your smile.

You have taught me to test my own limitations and go the extra mile.

Since the beginning, we have been on this journey together.

And in this coming year, I know that both of us will continue to get better.

Happy birthday, little girl!


You are going to conquer the world!!!
