Don’t Go, Mom

Like many moms, I am almost always on the go.

Last year I faced big challenges and stress and have been recovering after making some life-changing compromises.

I often encourage my kids to go do something or they find something to do on their own and become occupied so that I can go accomplish a task, or 10.

Time passes and I’m cramming things in while they are off entertaining themselves.

Yes, I’m quite proud of the fact that they can be resourceful and come up with activities on their own.

Yes, I’m glad they are somewhat self-reliant and can problem-solve and carry on with a project on their own.
