Easter Reminded Me of the Miracles That Are My Children

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. Below is a tale of my road to becoming the mother of three. It was a road filled with joys and disappointments. However, I wouldn't giving nothing for my journey now. Here's to embracing every step of the journey, even the painful ones, and embracing the lessons learned along the way.

Mommy Mondays: Preparing for Halloween

on
I consider sunny days in Pittsburgh akin to holidays. Today was a sunny day in Pittsburgh and I was thrilled! I greeted the day by seeing our jack-o-lanterns. They made me smile because I remembered our impromptu “Pumpkin Party” from the night before.
Andre loves enjoying the moment, which helps to make my life even sweeter. On Sunday after our run, he declared that we would be carving pumpkins in the evening.  He called our families and told them about the pumpkin carving plan and invited them to join us.  Because we were expecting a crowd, we had to prepare food for them. So, in an instant, our Sunday turned from relaxed to hectic, but it was so much fun!
Below are some photos from our visit to the pumpkin farm where we selected our pumpkins. I'll post some photos of the Jack-O-Lanterns soon!
Reflecting on my Sunday made my Monday a great one.
How are you getting ready for Halloween?!
