My man and I have JUST been talking about how I need to learn to shut off my "work brain" and just relax. I'm just always going, and thinking of things to do, and it's only going to get worse as I am leaving a full-time job in order to go back to school full-time and work from home 15-18 hours a week. <br /><br />Thanks for the challenge, and letting me know I'm not alone!

Thanks for the challenge, and letting me know I’m not alone!

Your daughter looks like she's taking this water park thing <em>very</em> seriously! :)<br /><br />again, a totally relatable post, had be laughing out loud this one, YODA. And I think it is also very neat that there are so many of us all working on the same mothering / balance/ work stuff. BTW, what do you do at home? Have you covered this somewhere that I missed? that pic at the bottom of your kids is so adorable. Your daughter looks like she’s taking this water park thing very seriously! :)

I, too, have to force myself to be still with my kids. Sometimes I'm just so wound up on all the coulds and shoulds that I forget how important it is to just play and be.
