After years of struggling with how to “do it all”, I’ve finally figured out a simple idea (though still not easy in practice) for how to get everything done.
Being a mom is busy. It may not seem like a big deal to keep the house relatively clean, make sure everyone has clean clothes, and get some form of nourishment on the table three times a day, but try doing all of that with multiple small children in tow…and it turns into an Olympic event.
That’s not counting all the teaching that comes with mothering…teaching manners, reading, arithmetic, appropriate social behavior, personal care, and a slew of other little and big lessons that need to be addressed regularly….
