Simplify Routines

            Just one or two days of dragging behind the daily grind, can create a week's worth of catching up on everything from bills to laundry.

Prepping and planning routines for my family is a major life saver for us. I prepare meals, clothes, and activities. If I don’t simplify the number of things I need to accomplish, I usually become very overwhelmed and fail to get through the tasks at hand. 

The mornings are the toughest for me, especially now that my oldest is needing to catch the bus.  I like to do a late-night sweep around the house for everyone’s necessities and pick out school clothes she needs for the following day. That way, I’m not thrown off schedule, digging in the laundry for that must-have shirt my daughter refuses to leave the hose without. 

Mindful Minute:

  • Do you experience obstacles and delays in your routine on a regular basis?
  • Does this occur due to organization or something else? 
  • What are some ways you can plan ahead to save time?
  • How can you prepare your family better for busy days?
  • If parent-child interactions cause delays, how might planning help with behavioral issues (mom’s or child’s)?

Nature vs Nurture: The Mother's Shadow Series

Parenting is the greatest challenge one can experience in their lifetime, and the degree of difficulty varies for everyone. No two people are alike, but despite this, we pair up and create more unique strangers. We then have to set our priorities aside, and help these little beings learn all about the world and themselves, while most likely not knowing much about life ourselves. If all goes well, an unconditionally loving relationship will have formed between two random personalities. In that instant a family is formed and society places standards and obligations on parents to be deemed eligible guardians to their own offspring. The vagueness of family medical history available to me, has prevented any attempts to determine if my afflictions stem from genetics or upbringing. This question of nature versus nurture that so many of us try to decipher is, in my opinion, a senseless endeavor. If one does not find the answer they are wanting to receive, they will then proceed to ...
