Overwhelmed?

Can't seem to get it all done? Committed to activities that keep you from getting things done at home? Kendra says one of the best pieces of advice she received was "Just stay home."

Now, we can take this too far of course and be so centered on our family that we never think to go out and serve others. Or, we can shelter our kids so much that they don't know how to interact with people that don't think like their family. But, there is a real temptation these days to "run, run, run." Sometimes you just need to hear that it is ok to stay home and train your kids. Love on them. Have time to read books. Teach them to help with household tasks. Keep your home running smoothly (or as smoothly as it can with little ones about :0).
