I'm just plugging along. Working full-time Monday through Friday, then scrubbing and cleaning on my weekends. There's absolutely no way to ever feel relaxed and rested with this busy lifestyle.
But I'm not alone. Millions of mothers around the globe are in the same circumstance as I.
"Work your fingers to the bone and what do you get? Bony fingers!"
That's something silly my kids used to sing.
It's Saturday morning, I've already done a load of laundry, cooked breakfast, taken care of my toddler, helped my 10 year old with her times tables, and read a few chapters in my Bible. And I've only been up for one hour. Yeah...that's my life. Hurry and do it! Because if you sit and relax, it doesn't get done.
My dream: a weekend where I can actually relax and sleep in.
But I'll take this busy life, I suppose, over the alternative: no children in my home. That would mean no laundry to wash, no times tables to go over, no toddler to chase after.
