I don't know how other people do it.....?


How do they find time for a full time job, a family with five kids, chores, errands, cooking, sleeping and still find time for their hobbies (.......like blogging and crafts)?

At the start of every year (My year starts when the school year begins.) I struggle with fitting it ALL in and I only have one child. I know I don't have to do IT like everyone else, but I still feel like I'm not doing it right (.....see I'm still working on getting rid of misplaced guilt....) because everyone else seems to have a handle on balancing things (maybe they're just good at hiding their unbalancedness) and I'm still stumbling around.

The fact that you worry about not being balanced means you're doing it right.

And for the record... no one wants to hang out with the one who has it all perfectly balanced. The REAL fun is in the chaos and comradeship. Honest. It's awesome. Kick off your shoes and come in for tea darlin' :)

Nobody "does it." We're all hanging on by our fingernails. We just THINK others are managing life better than we are. Your son is adorable, and looks VERY happy. You're doing fine. :-)
