Not Enough Time!!!




I am starting to realize that there just isn't enough time in one day. That starts with putting the kids to sleep. Once they are asleep, I try to spend some time with Teish but then you still need to get to bed at a decent hour because I wake up at 5 to go to the gym. It takes time for me to wake up at that hour and fight the fight just to not be tempted in going back to bed. I then try to get everything I was planning to get in at Golds, but if I run into old friends or new ones I just can't fit my full workout in for that morning. And if anyone has met a Full Time, Pro-Active, (my bills at home are dependant upon the amount of deals I can wrap up in the shortest amount of time), type of Realtor; then you might know what my day consists of. And who knows when I get home. (Even though I am being stricter about my Monday Nights)Once I am home, I have usually an hour to an hour and a half to take Kylee to the park, make Dylan laugh and give kisses, read Kylee stories while she sits on the potty, wrestle Kylee to take one bite of her dinner, (and I only had to put Kylee in timeout once at dinner), change Dylans diaper in between his feedings with mommy, teach Kylee that she can't just watch me as I pick up her toys, help her with her pajamas, clean teeth, read scriptures, pray, read two more Disney books, sneak out of her room while she is busy counting how many dogs are in the red car, tag team Teish as I kiss Dylan good night and then look at the clock and realize I don't have time to catch up on the DVR... (OK, take a breath, I know you all are holding it)(and that isn't a Family Home Evening Night) Well tonight was and we finally got Kylee to bed an hour and a half past her normal routine. (Teish just mentioned that if you reread that run on sentence about 4 times in a row, that is Teishas day) But this is really the best time of my life. I can't even begin to count my blessings, honestly! Tonight we learned about animals and why God created them. Kylee was a duck, quacking half the time. Then we frosted, sprinkled and sugared up some cookies. Its past my bedtime and I'm not even sure what my point is other then Life is Grand.
