Spring struggles

April 25, 2007

The first signs of spring are blooming in my garden. Unfortunately I am currently in a bit of a funk that even daffodils can't pull me out of. The days are beautiful, sunny and warm but I'm struggling with mothering and home schooling self-doubts and insecurities.

About 2 months ago I found myself in a busy, stress induced funk. Some very good things came out of re-evaluating life at that time. Namely, a daily early quiet time that I've never managed to discipline myself to do before and a better chore system for the kids that has kept our house tidy and comfortable.

So, I hope when I come through this I'll have greater clarity regarding my roles as mother & homeschooler. Wish I had something more upbeat to say...
