Now I Get It!

Last week I was exhausted. I didn't understand it. By the time I put Samantha and Callie to bed, I was ready for bed. Really. I went to bed a few nights at 9pm! Talk about the being and old worn out mom. Today, I scheduled an appointment for Samantha. As I wrote it down on the calendar, I noticed that she has 6 appointments within 5 days! No wonder I'm pooped at the end of each day! There's the every day stuff, then each day I'm packing up the kids and literally carrying them from place to place (which is tiring enough alone), presidency meetings, church activities, etc. I'm tired. If the girls would sleep in longer than 5am that would help me a lot too. But at least Samantha and Callie are both usually sleeping through the night. That has helped. Sheesh. Life gets busy. How do moms who have more than 2 kids do it? I just don't know.

I'm thinking this is why there are more women in the Celestial Kingdom

I'm speaking as a parent of more than two, I don't do it well at all most of the time and I, too, fall into bed exhausted by the end of each day. And nothing is perfect, ever, not the status of the house, or meals, or diets or, or, or...

I don't know and I have three. If someone is out there who is "doing" it, let me know how, kay?

Five appts in six days! Or was it six in five? I can't handle more than one or two a week. Really!

Yep, it's 6 in 5. But, it's actually only 3 days of appointments as she has 2 on Monday, 2 on Wednesday, and 2 on Thursday!
