You know that you will find the time to do what you have to do because right now this is your calling (Esther 4:14).<br />You will be great and your sons will grow up strong and valiant. I know this because I know your hear. <br />MABloggingBillshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01466084970947807008noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7989676854656500628.post-14935567575770885322010-09-24T09:55:12.509-07:002010-09-24T09:55:12.509-07:00I always remind myself that this incredibly busy a...I always remind myself that this incredibly busy and oh-so-exhausting stage is but a short season in a hopefully long life. Right now, my life is about mothering and all that entails, plus working full-time and trying to live up to my Father in Heaven's expectations. There will be a time all-too-soon when I won't have little ones that need to be tucked in, scrubbed, diapered, or fed. Remembering that this is but one season in my life helps me press on. You can totally do this - you're amazing!<br /><br />P.S. Let people help you. Don't turn down requests for service...let your friends and family reap some blessings for lending a hand. AND be vocal about needing help! It takes a village, right?<br /><br />Take care - your frequent reader but never comments cyber friend, LanetteAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7989676854656500628.post-10869637933808130802010-09-24T09:20:17.454-07:002010-09-24T09:20:17.454-07:00You will do great!

Lee, in the institute OT manual: "By faith in God you can be attuned to the Infinite and by power and wisdom obtained from your Heavenly Father harness the powers of the universe to serve you in your hour of need in the solution of problems too great for your human strength or intelligence."Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04808530756253283740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7989676854656500628.post-28237876653304184112010-09-24T08:42:47.828-07:002010-09-24T08:42:47.828-07:00The solution to all your problems is easy....PLAY ...The solution to all your problems is easy....PLAY MORE WITH ME!!!

You amaze me though. You are such a good mom to those boys. I remember being pregnant with Kate and thinking the same thing. How in the world am going to have two kids? I think it's happened EVERY time I get pregnant. I still feel that way with this pregnancy. I'm so tired, and worn out and feel like life is just INSANE, and I just can not imagine having a new born thrown into it all. <br />It'll change when you meet him. :) I agree with Chelsea. Henry can totally help with cleaning some, and so can your other boys. They will love their baby brother, and one of them is bound to go running for something you need if it's for the baby. You can do it!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07163982079750442763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7989676854656500628.post-61156812921377286142010-09-24T02:32:29.726-07:002010-09-24T02:32:29.726-07:00Dear Morgan,

He should soon have chores & responsibilities, and wont that be a tiny little blessing even if you do have to nag him into it & punish him when he doesn't? Henry & Derek love you, and as the men of the house, I'm sure they'll be there to hold you up on days when you're just too darn tired to rise to the occasion. Actually, based on personality, you may want to hand the chores over to Spencer-Man. :P <br /><br />I can hardly imagine your life. I'm constantly in awe of you and how well you do your jobs-- all of them. That's partly why I read this blog! <br /><br />I'm deciding RIGHT NOW that sometime between our honeymoon and having moved to the Seattle area, I *will* be coming out there, and I *will* be doing SOMETHING to give you a bit of a break whether I have to pretend I'm half as good at your job for an hour or four... or I have to do 8 gazillion loads of laundry or something. You (and Derek) deserve it. Besides, by then I'll have very little to do, really--it's just transition time for us. <br /><br />Summer 2011. Look out for it. <br /><br />Love,<br /><br />ChelsChelseahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15596049570505708797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7989676854656500628.post-88324352012131149462010-09-23T20:07:49.676-07:002010-09-23T20:07:49.676-07:00I have no idea, but I did think the same before I ...I have no idea, but I did think the same before I even had one. I'll bet you've had the same thoughts too, and you make 3 kids look like 1.

And the new baby just fills the home with love. That newness straight from heaven just eminates and makees everything and everyone great! Good luck and I know you will do great! <br /><br />And I envy you getting to potty alone :)Dianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14497699945648999250noreply@blogger.com
