Finding Balance

Lately, I have taken on a few more ‘jobs’ than I’m used to. On top of being a wife, mom, hairdresser, childcare provider, and all the tasks that come with, I also co-teach Sunday school and now I also co-ordinate “Ladies Coffee Time” on Wednesday mornings at my Church.

I LOVE everything that I do. I’m so thankful that I am able to do it. I love being able to serve in my church and out.

I have to wonder though, how to create balance. I still need to make time for my husband and my children.

I can’t forget to see my friends.      

Lastly, I can’t forget to connect with you, my faithful readers.

So, this is the next challenge in my life. Making time and spending my time, where it is needed the most, with those that need me the most.

On those trips to the grocery store I won’t be alone anymore. That is valuable time I can spend with my daughter. Teaching her about purchasing the right food for our style of cooking/eating, and teaching her about money as well.

Reading before bed will be a regular nightly occurrence. I can’t just skip a night cause I don’t feel like it. My kids need to spend that time with me and I need to make that time for them. It reminds them how important they are to me. 

My house might be a little less tidy than normal (?), because I’ll be hanging out with the kids instead of cleaning up.

So, if you stop by, expect a mess.

My excuse will be…

…I’m Finding Balance.

 

 

If you have any tips or ideas for me, I’d love to hear them!

Loving on others

As most of you know, we sponsor 1 child financially and we correspond with 2 more. This has been such a blessing for us. This has really opened our eyes to  what life is like in other countries and also to how much love we can feel for someone we have never met. These 3 boys are so special to us and it will be a sad time when our correspondence will have to end. But this is not the only way to love on others. This is only one of the few. It could be helping the homeless, either by serving at your local soup kitchen or even as simple as dropping a few groceries into the helping hands bin at your grocery store. It may seem like a very small act to you but it could be life changing for someone else. or it could be as simple as a… It could even be as easy as letting someone cut in front of you, either in the store line or in your car on the road. Loving on others is so easy that most of us seldom realize how many opportunities we have each and every day to do so! What ki...
