Best advice my mom ever gave me: "That you can and should do it all. My mom has worked basically every day of her life since she was in college, but still managed to be at every dance recital I ever performed, took me to museums and plays every weekend, and read books to me every time we had a few minutes to lay around at home. She must have been exhausted, but never let it show."
My mom's best beauty trick: "That SPF is the key to smooth skin. She would chase me around the beach with a bottle of sunscreen and fought me when I didn't want to stop playing to let her reapply, but now I would never leave home without it. Every once in a while, I still get a morning text reminder to wear it." — Alessandra Foresto, senior editor, Latina
