9 Things I’ve Learned From Going Back to Work After a Baby
Recently, I was asked to speak on a panel about going back to work after having a baby. Having done this twice, I am definitely no expert, but I can speak about what worked for me. Here are nine things I've learned (or wish I'd known) based on a predictable weekday schedule.

Disconnecting From My Cell Phone, Connecting With My Kids
It all started by accident. Halfway to work one day, I realized I had forgotten my cell phone. I was forced to spend a good nine hours with no cell phone.
Say Yes to Summer!
Every year around this time, I start getting antsy. I start to realize the summer I have been waiting for is already halfway over.
