Best of 2009: Challenge

Posted on | December 9, 2009 | 2 Comments

I am participating in Gwen Bell’s The Best of 2009 Blog Challenge. December 9th, Gwen asks what was greatest challenge in 2009?

Challenge. One word. Parenting.

At the beginning of this year, I was the mother of 2.

On October 1st, I became the mother of 3!

While I adore my children, parenting is a challenge. Every day of the year. There are not enough hours in the day to get everything done. I think I do my best most days but there have been some in 2009 where I have given up. When that happens I realize I need to balance better and take better care of myself to be the best mom I can be.

I have been on maternity leave with Jack since mid September. I worry what things will be like when I go back to work in January 2010. That will be a challenge that I look forward to, no matter how scared I am.

Balance is key for me.

Wish me luck.
