Time and attention.
Those two words alone are overwhelming. There never seems to be enough of one and not enough energy for the other. Before going to bed each night I plan and schedule my day. I can plan out the details as see everything coming together.
But then morning comes. And the whining starts. And before I can pour my first cup of coffee, my energy for the day is gone and the schedule is a fragment of my imagination. We push through the day. I cling to whatever joy and energy I have left. I don't want to be a mom who is constantly grumpy. My sons need to see a mother serving her family with joy.
How do I balance meeting the needs of my boys, be the teacher I expect of myself, and be a partner with my husband?
