When my children grow up what will they remember about me?
I know they will remember that the house was not always clean.
I hope they remember that I love the Lord.
They will remember me getting them someone else to help with homework because thats not my thing.
I also know they will remember that I was fun! I fail at so many things but we have so much fun together. We bake and we make messes and we watch movies and we laugh a lot!
So young mommies of this world,
Please try not to stress about your house and the things you can not fit into your day. Instead focus on your babies and having fun with them. You will not remember in 20 years the load of dishes you didnt get done on Jan 27 2011 But you will remember the first time your baby smiled or laughed. Or your first tea party with your daughter. Or the puppy following around your son in the yard!
Keep it simple and keep it happy!
Thanks Chelsea! I need to remember this though i don't have kids yet. I stress out too much about keeping the house clean!
