The adjustement to Summer has taken a little while over here. While I'm not one for strict routines, it has taken us a few weeks to get into a good rhythm. Nap times are a bit different now that the whole crew is home full time. The house is always loud and noisy. Someone is always fighting with someone else. I'm constantly thinking of things to dispel boredom and keep busy boys occupied. The messes are never ending and it's always hard to find a balance between work and play. And lately there's been more tough days and burnt dinners than I'd like to admit. Then there's those thoughts of not being good enough, and not having enough time for everyone that are constantly creeping into the back of my mind. As a mother there are some days where I have to force myself to find joy in the journey and then there are other days when I'm full of faith and trust and able to see things more clearly. And if all else fails I peek in on a napping child for a few moments of peace and quiet.
