One Secret to Success for a Working Mom, Expand Your Village (Jack and Jill of America)

on
Jack and Jill of America member and her daughter Recently, I have become keenly aware that good kids are created by accident. They become good because someone made a concerted effort to pour positive things into them--things like, honor, discipline and respect for others. These qualities are taught through lessons and by observation. For that reason, I have been actively considering how to give my children more examples of people who embody those qualities.  Indeed, raising my children to become good people is my most important job.

Wednesday Wisdom-Cherish every moment

on
Hanging out at Myrtle Beach
“Cherish every moment with those you love at every stage of your journey.” ― Jack Layton 
A friend sent me a link to day to send me a video message on my phone. Because I have like 7,000 photos saved, not including the videos and applications that I have on it, I was unable to install this new app and was unable to see or hear her video message. Well, I want to be a good friend and want the message. So, I have been looking through my phone to identify things that I can delete and/or transfer. During my project, I found this photo from our trip to Myrtle Beach last month.

Since it was overcast skies, cold and rainy in Pittsburgh, seeing this photo of a sunny day at the beach was a nice treat!

It made me smile and helped me get over the hump called Wednesday. I remembered the sweet vacation memories. I remembered running along the beach, jumping the waves, breakfast by the ocean and sandcastles... I remembered ice cream for dinner, seafood for lunch, and abundant fresh fruit. I remembered not having to make my own bed for nearly a week. I remembered paradise! The smile you see above captures all of that. I decided to share it with you in case you also needed something to boost your spirits.

Happy Wednesday!!!
