Only if you want to be perfectly PC. I think the idea of time to pray and reflect BEFORE your kids wake up is good. It's funny because I wrote today about what happens to me when I try to do that when they're awake. Doesn't work much. And getting the chores done the night before is huge, if you can keep from collapsing! I think it’s “flight attendants”. Only if you want to be perfectly PC.

Time must be made for the things that are really important. You are important to me...and that towel picture just makes me want to cuddle your children. Miss you!

JUST THIS MORNING I showered with Little Bear sitting on the floor of the tub! My baby is sick with the stomach flu and had poo-ed himself as I was hurriedly trying to get out the door...so, I slayed two birds with one stone! The towel dilemna...I'm all over the steward-person philosophy!! Wow!

Like someone else said, if this is you at half-empty, wow... On a slightly lighter note, I GOT MY DYM SHIRT!!! I can't believe how giddy yippie-skip happy I was to see a piece of clothing! Ahhh, the simple things in life. You are so nice and so sweet and so giving to people you barely know, I can well imagine you are close to running on empty if you give that much of yourself to everyone on a continual basis. Please do take some time for yourself. I swear, if I knew any publishers I'd throw them in your direction, you could be <I>our</I> generation's Erma Bombeck, seriously. Major virtual hugs and aloha!
