Kids keep you young

Whoever, said kids keep you young must have been child-free…

I have a busy household with 3 kids 7 and under, there are mad-dashes out of house in the morning, another dash to prepare dinner and eat as we leave for soccer practises, games and swimming, doctor appointments, clothes shopping, visits to the parks, birthday parties and the inevitable summer BBQs.  Notice that there is no mention of the unending housework that keeps the house running…  Ok with all of this, I should be in my teens.

I was just looking at the blog of a fabulous woman who homeschools 5 kids, bakes, sews, knits and God knows what else.   http://pleasantviewschoolhouse.blogspot.com/  She is my she-ro.  That is who I want to be when I grow up.  She looks great and probably finds time to workout.  It’s all I can do to get out of bed in the morning.  Should I mention that I am currently paying for a gym membership I have not used since January?  My mother would say not to envy someone because you never know what is going on behind the facade, however, I can help but wish I could be that … energetic.

    I would be willing to bet even your shero got a bit frazzled with things now and especially when her kids were younger.
