So little time

There are not enough hours in the day!  As if I am not busy everyday; the weekends my son is with his dad, I try to get as much possible accomplished.  I never want him to think he is not top priority, so I don't do homework or housework while he is here and awake.  I was buying groceries at one o'clock this morning!  If I could have a clone, I think I would invest in one.  I am going to have gray hairs before I am thirty.  It's a beautiful weekend and I am stuck doing homework and chores.  I wonder why God only made twenty-four hours in the day?

  1. A feel ya! With the exception of a quick trip to Academy, I have been inside this entire Saturday working on school work. My goal is to finish everything today and not have to worry about it Sunday! Keep at it!

  2. I ask the same question sometimes! I try to do everything I can while the kids are at daycare/preschool because when we all get home I want to dedicate myself to hanging out with them. Not fussing over homework and chores. Good luck! It's hard.

  4. I can relate to trying to hae everything done so you can spend more time with your child. I do the same thing. However, this weekend I didn't get everything accomplished. I am going to have to make yardwork into a "fun" event for the both of us.

  5. When my children were at home, I involved them in whatever I was doing--grocery shopping, cleaning, homework (I was in school, on and off, while they were growing up). They helped share the load; we did our homework together. They had an understanding of all the work involved in keeping a household running, and watching me struggle with my own coursework showed them the importance of learning.

    I say "Get your children involved."
