It Continues...

I got to go out to dinner with Sue Loesch last night. She is kind of taking on a mentoring relationship with me and it was so great to talk with her. It just came at the most perfect time considering the conversation that I had with Mark on Sunday. Talking through everything with her helped me focus on what I need to do. She reassured me of some things that I already know, but rarely put into practice. I need to stop comparing myself to other moms and I need to allow myself to take breaks. I need to enjoy this season of my life because it is going to be gone all to soon.

So, my goals for the week are to not worry about the laundry...which is super hard when it is strewn across the living room for days at a time. And to enjoy the time I spend feeding Levi. I will not be spending that time in front of the computer grading papers. It is a chance for me to put my feet up and enjoy my baby. I am hoping these little steps will help me make our home more fun to live in.
