So I’ve mentioned this before in a few of my posts, but I constantly feel like I’m chasing my tail. Whether it be getting everyone ready for daycare, school and work, heading to the grocery store, or just trying to make dinner, things seem to be pretty chaotic all the time. Admittedly, it was a difficult adjustment after my second child was born and I had to go back to work. I always felt like I was constantly busy, constantly running, always exhausted and yet getting absolutely nowhere! I was trying to juggle several different balls and felt like I was dropping almost all of them.
Now that my baby is 10 months old and I have had some time to get used to my new hectic lifestyle, I’ve decided to embrace it instead of complain about it. I actually find it kind of funny sometimes that when I seem to be rushing the most my son has an enormous blow out in his diaper. Or when I forget to grab my purse and don’t realize it until I am already at work or walking into the grocery store. Months ago those things would have sent me into a tailspin. I’ve now accepted the fact that I am not a juggler, nor was I meant to be. I don’t cook every day, I’m not super organized, and I’m probably running a few minutes late…ok not probably, I definitely am running late. But all of those things are okay. I’m not just living my life but I’m enjoying it, chaos and all! I wouldn’t trade my family for anything in the world and as crazy as things may get around here, their love brings such amazing peace.
