Im considering applying this concept.....

Some Good Advice

I found this the other day and LOVED it.

"First, recognise that the joy of motherhood comes in moments. There will be hard times and frustrating times. But amid the challenges, there will be shining moments of joy and satisfaction.

Second, don't over schedule yourselves or your children. Families need unstructured time when relationships can deepen and real parenting can can take place. Take time to listen, to laugh and to play together. 

Third, even as you try to cut out the extra commitments, find some time for yourself to cultivate your gifts and interests. Pick one or two things that you would like to learn or do that enrich your life, and make time for them. Water cannot be drawn from an empty well, and if you are not setting aside a little time for what replenishes you, you will have less and less to give to others, even to your children."
