It's been another crazie week ~ we came back from a nice, weekend retreat and stepped into a frenzy full few days (that's alliteration, baby). I mean, the weekend was really some needed time away to pray and relax and think and talk and learn; we went with the leadership team from our church and really just enjoyed the time together. Of course, when one should return from such a weekend, one would step into a very intense, non-retreat type life.
It's okay though, because I'm learning along the way too.
We have my sister-in-law-to-be's shower this weekend {don't worry, it's not a surprise} and its been a juggling act between setting up and managing the necessary action steps before Saturday while being a mom of two boys...two little guys.

Honestly, I'm in a much better place than I was, well let's say this time, yesterday. But that's because I've been able to somehow complete most of the tasks required of me...and I say most, because there will always be plenty that will not get done until the last minute. I've learned to accept that at this point in my life; it levels expectations and I'm not always so disappointed {for someone who likes to plan, last minute isn't ideal}. But it's okay. I'm okay with what I can and cannot do. Saturday there will be a party and it will be spectacular and life will go on from there. Jus has provided lots of therapy to help me manage my perfectionist tendencies, because time doesn't really allow me to attain exactness.
...and that's ok.
