Do you ever feel like simple tasks like trying to get into the car, getting the kids dressed, making dinner, or getting the kids ready for bed are so difficult and truly the hardest part of the day? After all, where are the shoes, socks and coats and where's the other shoe that goes with this one and how did you manage to do that to your hair in the amount of time I was trying to find your coat?  Do you ever feel like you can't keep up with life and the tasks to just get your house to a functional state are endless? Believe me Mama we have all felt this way and some of this is just part of having kids.  In this episode I offer principles that we live by in our family that help me to maintain a peaceful, orderly and functional home.  Don't worry I'm not going to give you a cleaning schedule or a to do list on how to keep your house perfect, but I am going to share some general rules that we follow in our home that help make my home function, stay organized and give me peace.  So, reheat that coffee and let's grow together!
