I love this post. You echo my thoughts ...Hey Nicki! I love this post. You echo my thoughts so well!! I often feel I'm running to catch up with Super-Mom next door (or on the next blog!). I'll tell you ... When our first child was born (over three years ago) I had spreadsheets. Everything was scheduled. The TV was rarely on. Everything was in place and seemingly perfect. Then came #2 -- a completely different creature. Now my life is semi-scheduled. We have some events on the calendar, some rituals/habits we get into, but things are pretty easy-going now. My son demands it! He needs the "down-time" and flexibility to feel stability. Otherwise, he just gets a little crazy. So ... like someone else said, you kinda gotta figure out what works best for you and ignore the Wonder-Moms. God has given us each gifts. Housekeeping is definitely not one He gave to me! :) <BR/><BR/>All that said, there is one book I've read that REALLY helped me have a more comfortable, orderly home --- Organizing Magic by Sandra Felton. I've got a partial review on my website. It's nice bite-size pieces that really work. Maybe you'll find it helpful, too!Tanyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11284165488156415840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28553706.post-9882554494279885962007-04-25T19:19:00.000-04:002007-04-25T19:19:00.000-04:00SO VERY GLAD that God blessed you today through my...SO VERY GLAD that God blessed you today through my pics! :)<BR/><BR/>I am a go with the flow, Mom. Nothing scheduled, very little planned...I just wait and see what God is up to...Now my house is not often as clean as I'd like it and yes that is play dough stuck in the carpet, but I plan to someday have it up! Right now I'm just enjoying my young 'uns (as Beth might say). We have company pretty often, so I get it sort of cleaned, but as for being organized and planned?? No...but I'm reading a book about it--does that count?<BR/><BR/>You're a great Mom, I know...just tell them about the Lord and how faithful He is...tel them that Mom and Dad love them so much! That will go so far.<BR/><BR/>In His Joy,<BR/>HollyHollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00794673914973256109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28553706.post-22212632820773819912007-04-25T19:17:00.000-04:002007-04-25T19:17:00.000-04:00ahhhh.........refreshing words! thank you!!! =) Oh...ahhhh.........refreshing words! thank you!!! =) Oh ya, I read her blog today and she posted during a time that was NOT ON HER SCHEDULE!!! =) hee hee!!

What would the world be like without FLEXIBLE moms like us? My goal is to be just the best that I can be each day - and if one day doesn't go well - I try to make ammends for it the next! Hang in there - the time for organizing will be there when those precious girls are grown! Let's just aim to be organized Grandma's - there's a goal we might reach!<BR/>Living for Him ONE DAY AT A TIME,<BR/> KimAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
