Busy

ACK! School and dance and sports; extra commitments at Church; every spare moment filled with trying to keep up with the house, and then still make time to be with the people we are doing all these things for. That can be a hard one, n'est pas? But don't forget about the people: the mamas you see at school, the ones at co-op or art class or soccer, who are as busy as you, maybe even more, but maybe also lonely. "Find Five": to read a story to your preschooler, to call your out-of-state friend, to reach out to that woman you see, the one you always notice but never speak to. It's so easy to get so busy in our own lives that we forget about those around us. Take a moment to breathe, and to notice.
