So I think one of the best qualities in a woman is ingenuity.

You know, being resourceful.

Motherhood has really helped me in this area.

Take this afternoon, for example, when the sun was shining and I was in desperate need of a boat drink.

Only problem, our ice machine is broken.

Sad, right.

So being the industrious type, I quickly inserted the giant plastic ice-cube that goes with our boo-boo friend from the freezer and into my drink.

Mamma's happy.
