BELOW IS A BLOG POST THAT I WROTE 9 YEARS AGO!
MY OLDEST SON IS 15 NOW. I FOUND IT IN MY DRAFTS AND DECIDED TO SHARE IT NOW BECAUSE I THINK IT WAS MEANT TO BLESS SOMEONE TODAY.
After having my first child six years ago, it rocked my world. Everything became a blur.
I vaguely remember a whirlwhind of pampers, doctor’s visits, sleepless nights, canned food, bottles, etc.
I actually stopped working a full-time job because I truly felt I was “called” to be a stay-at-home mom.
Ha! That was fun! 🙂
When that phase in my life didn’t work out, I returned to work when my son was 10-months old. I was convicted and confused about what I was SUPPOSED to do.
The Lord ministered to me so beautifully. He showed me that I didn’t have to be like anyone else.
He called me to be me.
He wanted me to follow His leading on how to live a balanced life for my family and not focus on the “super moms” I saw around me.
Remember this: We can always look to others for inspiration but never for intimidation.
What’s your life balance? I hope you know it…
