Stumble It!10 Questions: Melissa Joan Hart
What’s your favorite family activity?
Family walks and playing in the yard. We also adore going to fun places like the zoo and Disneyland for special occasions.
What is your greatest achievement?
Surviving the birth of my son.
What product(s) can’t you live without?
Born Free sippy cups and Little Giraffe blankies.
What do you do when you’re feeling selfish?
I indulge myself only sooo much. These days I take the time I need to rest or eat since I have another little life depending on my body.
What’s keeping you busy these days?
EVERYTHING! My husband’s album release and Grammy nomination, my crazy little man who just turned two—I planned two celebrations for him after the holidays – prepping for baby #2 by nesting, organizing and sterilizing everything before baby comes home.

I am so blessed by this article. Thank you for showing a realistic view of the modern mom. Raising our own children is still and will always be the most important thing we can do. Our children need our time more than they need our money and our success. From a potentially-successful mom whose scale weighs more heavily on child-rearing in the daily balance, thank you!
