Being a Project Manager at work is one thing.  
  
Being a Project Manager at home? That’s the real test. 😄  
  
Project: Raise Three Kids  
🟢 Status: In Progress  
👩 Sponsor: Mom  
👨‍💼 Project Manager: Dad  
💰 Budget: Over  
📈 Scope: Expanding Daily  
⏳ Timeline: 18+ Years… estimated  
⚠️ Risks: Constantly changing  
🎯 Success Criteria: Raise kind humans, keep everyone alive, and create great memories.  
  
The funny part is that parenting teaches many of the same lessons as Project Management:  
  
Plans change.  
Scope grows.  
Budgets get challenged.  
Stakeholders don’t always agree.  
Risks appear without warning.  
And sometimes… the Project Manager has absolutely no control. 😂  
  
But unlike most projects, success isn’t measured by finishing on time or under budget. It’s measured by the people we help grow. ❤️  
  
Maybe the most important project we’ll ever manage doesn’t need a dashboard after all.
