Happy Labor Day | A Mompreneur's Thoughts

"The end of labor is to gain leisure." — Aristotle

Happy Labor Day everyone!

We were heading to Florida this Labor Day but with the threat of Hurricane Hermine, we canceled our plans. So today, my family is relaxed and enjoying an opportunity to have a lazy day. As I consider the meaning of this day for me as a Mompreneur, the following thoughts come to mind:

1. As the official end of summer, Labor Day is a day to have that last hoorah with friends and family, whether on the beach, at a new unfamiliar destination, or just in a neighborhood park.
2. Labor Day marks the time when I begin to plan fall activities for my family. We love the fall season with Thanksgiving, apples, pumpkins, fall wreaths, and the list goes on...
3. Since Labor Day is in the the last month of the third quarter of the year, I begin to make a list of business goals that can be achieved in the 4th quarter.
4. Labor Day sales are the perfect opportunity for me to shop for winter clothes for my kiddos.
5. And finally, Labor Day is a day to reflect on the fact that I have a responsibility to vendors and employees that I shouldn't take for granted
