I'm so grateful when life seems overwhelming or little ones seem to need tons of attention I can go back to the basics. If I can have a personal devotional, exercise, groom myself, clean the house, serve meals, and, read to the kids everyday I'm doing great. Six things, not bad! Everything after that is icing on the cake. With little ones needing nursing,cuddling,following, training, changing, and playing the day can be eaten up fast. I need to stop feeling guilty about my to-do list and just enjoy the moment. That's hard to do when financial pressures loom on the horizon. We will make it! I just need to focus on teaching and training and loving these little guys. Hasn't this been the same story for the last 18 years? You think I would have mastered it by now! But if anything it seems harder now to go slow. Slow is fast with people and children especially. Heavenly Father knows this lesson takes lots of practice and faith! I'm so grateful He has patience with me and keeps reminding me of what is most important. He will take care of less important things I can't get to.
