Balance
I have such a hard time with balance in my life. It is something that I struggle so much with.
When I have a new interest, I throw myself into it 180%. And then, everything else in my world gets out of balance.
It’s such a frustration to me, but I’m working on it.
Right now, my passion in quilting and I have been focusing on quilting every spare moment I have…not that there are many spare moments in my life.
(Yesterday, my oldest daughter and I went to a quilt show in Fargo…just the two of us. It was so wonderful to have one-on-one time with her. It’s so rare.)
School is in full swing (I homeschool) and I have also taken on some new volunteer responsibilities with Faith Lifts.
I feel like writing is taking a back seat right now with everything that’s going on and I’m really frustrated.
But, I’m working on it. I’m praying about it and I know that God will help me to balance things out because He loves being involved in every part of my life…even those parts that I struggle with.
This is part of my journey.
God Bless You on Your Journey.

I understand how that goes Tamera. Spending mother/daughter time together in a hobby you both enjoy is a very good thing. I believe God will honor that and bless that.
I have three daughter’s to keep up with. That’s a lot of time to invest in my children, and if my writing needs to take a backseat for a week or so, He will want my time with the girls above my writing.
One day our daughter’s will be grown and gone, then we can fill our time with more writing. All our experiences with our children while we have them will give us plenty of material to write about. :O)
