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

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.

The Importance of Taking Vacations

on


Vacations are a time to refresh and renew. And, I highly recommend that you take the time to take one, even in these inflationary times! I recently traveled to Jamaica. I recognize that’s a luxury that not everyone can avail themselves of. However, we all have friends. If you can’t afford to take a vacation, visit a friend for a couple of days for a change of scenery, preferably, a friend with a pool!

Do Yourself a Favor, Take a Vacation

I don’t know about you. However, whenever I am at a pool, I feel like I am on vacation. During the pandemic, my parents pool was my saving grace. It gave me and my kids a respite from life’s drudgery and  was so much fun!

So, if you didn't get away when the kids were out of school, it is not too late! Don't listen to the naysayers, it is not too late to take a family vacation! In these last days of summer and even into early fall (climate change makes is possible), take advantage of a long weekend and get away for a change of scenery. Leaving home will clear your head, lift your spirits and allow you to reconnect with your family.

Just do it!

You can thank me later!
