My mommy works on the computer and FaceTimes peopl My mommy works on the computer and FaceTimes people. She is really good at her job. That’s how my first grader described what my job is in a recent school writing assignment. While I appreciated the complement, it made me realize just how hard it is to explain to my little girl what a lawyer is, especially one like me who doesn’t go to court. Her Fisher Price Little People Community Helpers set doesn’t include an in-house lawyer who drafts, reviews, and negotiates commercial contracts. If you are a lawyer mom like me who wants her kids to know all of the amazing things lawyer moms do, check out My Mom is a Lawyer by fellow lawyer mom Vanessa Gerard. It’s available at Barnes and Noble and Amazon. Lawyer moms, we’re all represented in the book. Prosecutors. Defense lawyers. Commercial litigators. Corporate lawyers. Real estate attorneys. Policy makers. Thank you @bostonu Unleashed PR Club for the Mother's Day care package containing this wonderful book. #lawyermom #lawyermoms #workingmoms #dallasmoms @mymomisalawyerbook
Whether it’s someone panhandling at an intersect Whether it’s someone panhandling at an intersection, sleeping under a freeway overpass, or walking around downtown with all of their possessions, our kids encounter homeless people all the time in Dallas. And they ask hard questions. Why is he sleeping there? Why doesn’t she have a home? Why doesn’t he have a family to take care of him? You and your kids can make the shift from empathy to action by volunteering for one of the amazing organizations serving the homeless people of Dallas. @familygateway @facesofugmdallas @thebirthdaypartyproject @hopesupplyco.dfw Check out my latest post for @DallasMoms for more information (click on the link in my bio). #dallasmoms #lawyermoms #carpoollinelaw #dallasmomblogger #uniongospelmission #hopesupplyco #thebirthdaypartyproject #familygateway #helpthehomeless

Starting the college application process with my oldest daughter has made me nostalgic for my college years. One of my favorite college memories was meeting Ann Richards. Texas and feminist icon, her message of unity and inclusion is just as relevant today as it was in the 80s and 90s. As can see by how close we are in the photo, she was extremely gracious to a stammering college kid thrilled to meet one of her idols. #onedaymay #lawyermom #dallasmoms #dallasmomblogger

No question, my most used gadget is my Kindle. If you want to read more, keep an e-reader with you and you can read whenever you have a few spare minutes. If you have access to the @libby.app through your local library, you download checked out e-books onto your e-reader. #onedaymay #dallasmom #lawyermom
