This may be an online therapy session for myself, to write it and get it out of my system. You know its been one of those days, too much laundry, more bills than money, phone won't quit, kids have forgotten any other word in their vocabulary besided "MOM!!!" (and yes its only heard at that volume level) The dishes aren't done and my list of things to do just keeps getting longer as the day gets shorter.... Thats enough! Thats enough of your whining, just keep it to yourself and get on with the day. Thats enough you've done all that you can and you have to trust that there's no more you can fit into a day...
Then I sit here to log into this blogging world to try and finish that one last entry and my sweet kids face are the first things I see as I go to log in and sure enough... its enough! Its enough to know that my full responsibility is not to my laundry or dishes, to my bills or my calling, to no one but their dad and these sweet 4 kids and today, its enough!!! I'm going to go read them a book and probably dole out popsicles too close to dinner, but for right this very second, its enough to have them tucked in my lap and the rest of the world can fade because they are enough and I love them!

You are a good momma! I've also had enough today, but instead of reading them a story, they're going to bed early so I don't lose it completely!!! Thanks for your example! Your kids are adorable! we miss you guys!
I can see that 4 has put you over the edge as it did me....just kidding. Your kids and hubby are very lucky to have such a great mom. Thanks for the reminder to remember what is really important.
