This week has been an extremely busy one!  I’ve had 2 sick kids (stomach virus….not swine flu) to take care of,  teaching, writing articles (one of which was sent to Yummy Mummy), judging for Mom’s Choice Awards, updating my 4 Piggies website  for the arrival of 8000 piggy banks, and to top it off  we’ll be entertaining guests this evening complete with a full roast beef dinner!

It can be hard as a mom when we seem to wear so many different hats.  Earlier this week I wore my nurse’s hat for my sick children.  Tuesday I wore my writer’s hat for most of the day since my children were well enough to go back to school.  Yesterday I wore my teacher’s hat as I homeschooled my daughter and then switched over to my maid’s hat as I tore through the house on a cleaning binge.  Today I wore my workout hat, grocery shopping hat, writer’s hat and later on my chef’s hat will come out of the closet to prepare that roast beef dinner complete with all the trimmings.

As many hats as I tend to wear in a day, I wouldn’t change it for a thing.  I’m glad that I have the opportunity to choose the hats that I wish to don on any particular day and can toss one aside for another if I please - (although that nurse’s hat is a little hard to toss when your children are tossing their cookies).  I’m grateful for the things I’m blessed with in my life and love that I run a business that allows me to work from home and still have the variety of putting on so many different hats.  I wonder what else life will throw my way today and what hats I’ll have to scramble to put on during the remainder of my day.  Whatever they are…..bring them on!
