I like to think that I am not busy. My goal is always to slow down, yet the pace keeps picking up. I don't desire a  life of running around, back and forth, here and there, etc. I want to be a keeper of the home, a wife, a mother, and a homeschooler. I love to be home, yet I am always going, just like I say I don't want to be. I am a part time homeschooler, along with my husband, and I also work 20 hrs per week as an Occupational therapist at a clinic for children with special health care needs. I also take my son, with all of his special needs to his numerous appts. throughout the week, and as of this evening he is now attending a young life group, or more accurately, we are attending Young Life.  My daughter has her ballet class, and her new Awana class. Then there is MOPS. As the discussion group team leader, I am at the MOPS meetings twice per month, plus all the planning meetings in between. Oh yeah, of course there is church on Sundays and youth group sunday nights.  Let's not forget grocery shopping, the dentist, the vet,  and that weekly trip to Home Depot. Who am I kidding? This is not the slow pace life I am striving to create. Although it is not as busy as some, it is still too much for me! There has got to be a way to change the pace. I am praying for God to show me  how.   With the Lord's help, I will figure this all out. Stay tuned.
