What was I thinking????????

I have a saying in the kids bathroom that says "Insanity is when your mind says no, but your mouth says sure I'd love to."
Well I'm sure "I'd love to" wasn't in my answer but I still said yes none the less. I just hope I can handle it all.

Three children in school (the homework battle begins), a son going to preschool three days a week. A two year old who swears she's Dora and a five month old who nurses and is just learning to eat. Oh did I mention he is still waking up two to three times a night... ugh. A husband who is gone every Tuesday, some Thursdays and all day Sunday. Taking care of the lawn and garden. Making meal plans, Fixing meals, shopping. Paying the bills, visiting teaching, preparing music time in primary, doctors visits, dental visits, orthodontist visits (you get the picture). Cleaning the house, doing laundry, making sure the kids get attention from Mommy and everything else that comes along. Well that doesn't seem to be enough... So I'll just add on PTA president. Yep...what was I thinking? Oh yeah...I wasn't.

Oh you're amazing and you'll do wonderful! I actually did say no to PTA President this year!

Wow! Good luck with that! Our PTA is full of drama and politics. I always say no when they ask me! Aren't I such a great mom?!

P.S. I was sad about losing the inches off the chest. I didn't need to lose anything there!! :)

My motto for PTA was "Keep it as simple as possible". Focus on one or two things that are important and KEEP IT SIMPLE!
I know that love is in the details but really....love is in the fact that you are doing it at all!! Don't complicate things.

Good luck!
