I don't know what the struggle...I'm sorry! I don't know what the struggle is, but I will pray for you all! I will say that when I often feel challenged like you sound, it's usually a struggle between Immanuel and I. I just 'remind' God that he gave me these children, Praise Him, but I also need wisdom to teach, love, and grow each one as He created them. I don't want to stifle who He wants them to be, but I also don't want to miss any area I'm supposed to shape and character build. Oh yeah, I also don't want to be insane and decide that pulling my eyelashes out one by one would feel better. :-P P.S. Just this morning I had to tell Immanuel that I needed to walk away from him. If he saw me walking away from him, he needed to give me the chance to breath before we head back into what seems like murky waters! I returned, after twice walking away, said a little prayer, breathed a little deeper, and all was better. Love you, Girl! You are a good Mama!!Adriannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12037241366688629498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6605806146218496855.post-15958302308658830332012-08-28T12:12:23.834-05:002012-08-28T12:12:23.834-05:00so cool.

And your shelves can look like 1+1+1+1 mom's! I am like you...so not able to fork out the monies for organizing foof and my mom used to do this for years. If you don't buy cereal ask a friend who gets WIC in your area; they seem to always have an overload of cereal for their kids ages 5 and below. I found that contact papering them makes them stronger and more durable. I will see if I can find a pinterest link on how to and post it as well! thanks for your post...I missed it from the original source and was starting to panic thinking as a sonlight homeschooler starting our first batch of books, how in the world I was gonna organize it!
