A quote that I've read is that who you are at home with your family, is who you really are. That sticks with and convicts me. I've worked hard to be the perfect Christian in my workplace and put my best into my workplace. By the time I was home I was worn out and had little left to nurture both my husband and children. I've since prayed and I'm working at giving my best to my family, doing the best I can at work but knowing that the only way to see God through me is for my work colleagues to see the real me, warts and all. Since I've made this change life at home is better, my loving from me and less stressed. I'm also more relaxed at work too.

It is a constant struggle! As the mother of 2 teenagers I am very aware that life is so very seasonal! This time with our children, these years to create habits and memories are so very short. Use them well and shake off those voices of guilt about what you are not doing. What you are doing is a job ONLY YOU can do.

We're all in different places, and I'm sure I couldn't begin to imagine what it's like parenting triplets. Even if our places in life are very different, I always learn from your perspective. Thank you from sharing the things you can. Kate Geisenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11854561265520868538noreply@blogger.com
