I was reading the Girl Talk Blog today and was reminded by this post that my goal of keeping up with relationships, meals, and laundry has been what keeps me sane these days.

Somedays when I'm daydreaming at the kitchen sink I imagine being able to keep the floors clean, make the bed, keep the shower clean, and all that other stuff that makes a homemaker feel at peace in her home.  BUT until my children are a bit older I'll continue to focus on the necessities (time together, clean undies, and good meals).  I wrote about this a couple of weeks ago but it is nice to see others feel the same way.  It helps me to remember grace when people are in my house and walking on my "crunchy" floors.
