WE SEEM TO FORGET ....

Waking up.. Making beds.. Throwing a load of laundry in.. Cleaning bathrooms... Kids wake up.. Get one ready for school .. Wake the other to take sissy.. Back home.. Cook breakfast.. Clean kitchen.. More laundry.. Clean floors.. Pick up the toys and put them away......................... And this is where I fall guilty of a routine that consist of YES A CLEAN HOME but that load of laundry can wait, the dishes are not going any where ... And obsessing over the finger prints on the fridge really should not be a priority over my sweet lil ones but I am ashamed to say it has been.. They grow so quickly and being so busy with my daily routines I often over look the imagination coming from my Kenzers as she pretends to cook, feed her baby, etc.. Before you know it is dinner time then baths and then bed and when I crawl into bed exhausted I take a moment and reflect  on the day that is coming to an end I feel this over load of guilt.. Is cleaning the floors so much more important than letting them slide one day and sitting down to watch a Muppet movie with kenz, to go color on the sidewalk with chalk, to color and do our abc's .... When Kayleigh gets home I should take some time and take them to the park before homework.. I have a very high strong personality and hate when things are out of place but these are kids... They are gonna drag toys out and I need to learn to go with the flow, and llet them be kids... I get so caught up on a routine but that routine needs a few adjustments ... Please tell me I am not the only mom that seems to forget how quickly our kids grow and get so caught up on our daily house chores we seem to put cleaning over playing dolls, trucks etc with our kids.... Time for a change.....
Much Love,
Jamie
