Give mom time.
One thing moms are short on is “time.” Time to do read, exercise, finish a cup of coffee (while it is still hot) and time to do nothing. I know I am looking forward to some quality family time this weekend without cooking or laundry but I also look forward to my family allowing a little time to myself. Give a mom in your life an hour or more to herself this weekend.

With the Kidoinfo Evening of “Balancing Motherhood” just around the corner, I’ve been thinking a lot about this topic…eager to hear what other women will say. I find it so helpful to discuss issues with other women going through the same things (hence the birth of Rhode Island New Moms Connection); I love exchanging ideas and learning from others. Feeling so connected to this topic, I thought I’d share some ideas that I discuss with women in new moms groups…strategies that may help new moms find some balance.
Join us on Monday, May 7th from 6-8 pm at Candita Clayton’s Gallery – Hope Artiste Village in Pawtucket, Rhode Island!
Stop by for good conversation, free drinks, snacks and raffles!
Kidoinfo Balancing Motherhood eventKidoinfo is hosting an evening to celebrate all of us who are Balancing Motherhood in our lives. In honor of Mother’s Day (May 13th) real moms will briefly share their stories on how they balance their life as parents with their passions, work, relationships, and plans for the future. This Kidoinfo community event is a night out not to be missed. You will have the chance to connect with others who are mixing family with creativity, business, and as much grace & humor as possible.

I remember sitting in the required parenting class at Women & Infants Hospital when I was pregnant with my first child. The instructor talked about ways to reduce stress in our daily lives. They were common sense things, like sleep when the baby sleeps, take a hot shower, go for a walk, talk on the phone… Talk on the phone—that one seemed silly to me. How does talking on the phone reduce stress?
