Finding a little balance

March 28, 2014 · 2 Comments

My schedule has gone beyond “busy” and I am not proud. I love all the work I do. Volunteering, subbing, work at home mom, stay at home mom, extra curricular activities for the kids, my mommy duties and taking care of our home. Honestly, the last one really lost me. Home. I have neglected it so much lately it bothers me. I can’t seem to even get close to catching up on the laundry. Homework, reading, playing, meals, dishes, all the other stuff you add to it, it’s just continuous.

I haven’t been so strict on my home duties and keeping it perfectly tidy though because at the end of the day my kids are more important to me than that basket of clothes to be a neatly put away. Because it is that season of busyness and two kids back to back in school I want my kids to know they are important to me.

I feel like I am losing ground though. I feel like my house is complete chaos and I am lost in it. So I am working hard the next few weeks on finding balance in my home with everything that pulls me in many directions. As I am reflecting in this area the last few days I know that I am also needing to find some balance in other areas.

I am pulled continuously with the different needs of my children. Nurturing them individually and uplifting them with encouragement each day. Building their little souls to grow in the Lord and love others. I am sure my babies are just like your children completely different from each other. Different emotional needs, love language, and likes and dislikes.

Finding balance is a challenge to me right now. Please pray for me. I want to be full submerged in their lives and blossom their spiritual walk all the while teaching them obedience, love, kindness, and more  through my life.

These are just some of my thoughts and I pray that if you are challenged in this area as I am you will seek the Lord for your guidance and trust in his goodness for you and your family.

    HI! I found your blog because I noticed that you are following mine…thank you! I’ve only been on here reading for about 10 minutes and already I feel encouraged! I can 100% relate to you on the chaos front. We are two months away from welcoming our fifth daughter…and in the busiest time of year! Swimming lessons, school, field trips, etc. I think it’s great when we can encourage each other as moms to continue to strive for that balance. For me personally, I tend to stress myself out….especially with this pregnancy, I’m super emotional, so it’s important to try and make at least one or two days a week “down days” where I just stay home and catch up on stuff here. I try and take lots of breaks so I feel like they are relaxing days as well, lol. I don’t know how well that works…

Chalkola + Birthday

We celebrated our sweet girl turning 12 years old! She loves all things horses, rainbows, and farm animals. I loved being able to spoil her with her favorites for the day. Riding horses, horse and rainbow cake, family time, pizza, and this adorable Chalkola Chalkboard. I am not an artist but the Chalkola brand chalk […]

His Love

This world is full of sorrow and suffering and death. But thankfully, this world isn’t it for us. Because of God’s greatest gift of salvation, we have the hope of the world to come, where there is no suffering and peace surpasses everything.  The storms that are raging and crashing all around us….will stop. That sickness […]
