What I'm currently working on is establishing a house of order. That means I am decluttering and organizing (everything in a place), getting better with menu planning, establishing more routines (making calendars for my daily routines), having order in my discipline (clear rules, consequences fit, following through), just trying to make everything more orderly. It's taken me a while and I still have a LONG ways to go, but I find that when our house is a house of order then I am a way better mom. We have more time, we have more fun and more love. Things don't seem so hectic.

I think about it a lot, too. I think it's a question that the Lord needs to have some say in. I try to pray for guidance each day to know how to best meet my family's needs. Just what's working here.

me three.

i try and spend as much time as possible doing what the kids like.

knox-snuggles and loves, talking to him.

nash- coloring, tickling, playing outsdie, going for walks, singing and reading books that he chooses.

i say whatever your kids enjoy doing, try and do more of that with each of them, as much as possible every day!

Amen to everything everyone has said!

I find that my most valuable tool is to pray that I will be intune with Heavenly Father and to know how He would have me raise my kids.

Love Ya Sis!
