It's back to school time... who's overwhelmed? I'm sure that's a yes from anyone that has children or works in a school. It's a busy time of year- all around. I find myself wondering how I can fit it all in and get everything done.
I live somewhat by the mantra that something has to give. It's either your house, or your job, or you feel like you're neglecting your kids. At the current moment, MacKenzie has been farmed out to my mother in law. It's not bad that she has time with other people, but of course, I feel guilty. I feel guilty taking my kids to the babysitter (whom I love, and they love- but it still doesn't make it better).
How do you manage to get your home cleaned, provide a meal for your family, do the laundry, work, take care of the kids, and find time to relax and enjoy the chaos around you? I always wonder how it will work out- and I can't explain how it does, besides the fact that it does. I know I have a lot of help that keeps me sane- and I couldn't do it without help.

A Mother's Prayer..
May my childeren look back on today
and see a mom who had time to play
There will be years for cleaning and cooking
But children grow up when we're not looking.
