Juggling Act

Well lately I have felt a little like a chicken running around with its head cut off. Now I know why moms dont work. Well that is if you want to get anything done. I just started a new business of selling handbags, which I love but it has taken up any free time I may have had before and some I didnt have before. I am so grateful that I am able to stay home with Shad and make sure that his needs are met, but I am having a hard time with there being a load or two of laundry constantly on the couch and dishes in the sink that I just can seem to get around to completing. On the possitive not Shad is still a total joy and is learning more everyday. He is getting a little closer to crawling (rocking on his knees) and talking more everyday. I am so blessed to have such a great family so close to me to help and support me. And the greatest blessing in my life now is my wonderful husband. I think that sometimes I take him for granted and I am trying to focus more on appreciating all the things he does for me and our family. Dan is such a hard worker and really seems to have the worst luck. Unfortunately Utah County has postponed hiring him yet again so he will not be working full time until May, which is very frustrating but nice since that will allow us to go to Disneyland in a couple weeks YEAH! I am so blessed to have such wonderful friends and other young mothers that help keep me sane and offer support when needed (thanks ladies). After conference I took a long hard look at my life and realize yet again just how lucky I am to live the life that I do and deal with the challenges that have been set for me. I know that my everyday experiences help me grow and learn and for that I am grateful.
