I love how you said what God gave you to carry and what you added had to be figured out. That is a brilliant way of looking at achieving balance-is it what we want or what God needs from us? I pray that you will continue to feel like a successful mom! You are right that sometimes we just need someone to say, &#034;Yep, you are having a tough day. That was hard to deal with.&#034; It can feel dismissive to hear, &#034;It will pass,&#034; eventhough we know that is that case. Thanks for sharing!]]></description>
