Chaos. That is sometimes what I hear in the background of my home. No one ever said that home school was going to be easy, but through the constant chatter, messes and craziness, I find myself more content and less "what was I thinking?" all of the time.
I have almost always worked at one level or another. There was a sweet period of time where that did not have to happen. It was a hard time, but it was beautiful. I felt tortured when I had to return to work, especially out of the home.
I know a lot of moms who work. I am not knocking this, but when I watch how quickly my children grow, it pains me. I know that everyone tells you how quickly it goes by, but as my children grow older, I realize the truth behind this statement more and more.
My friend wrote some beautiful words today that captured the essence of where my heart is. "How we spend our days really is important!" That is pure and simple truth. So I share the challenge. Stop. Evaluate. Choose. How will you spend your day? Each moment of life matters.
About Me
- Mrs. Lantrip
- I am a woman who is passionate about he Lord. I married my high school sweetheart, and have never looked back. I love my husband Tim. He is the second best thing that ever happened to me ;). We have three children; Cloey, Charter, and Cole. They are the apple of my eye, and if you are a parent you also know that they can occasionally be the thorn in my side. We live in my hometown and own an espresso bar and a home care service agency. Our kids have tons of activities. Some people think we are crazy because we do so much, but you only live once, so we say go hard, have fun, make memories, and make it count. While I have my kids, I am going to enjoy them, it goes by way too fast.
