Mom Spot: Time Saving Tip Tuesday

Hello readers! Today my son is turning FIVE - a whole fist-full - I can hardly believe it. I'm taking a few days off as we celebrate and look forward to a fun weekend. There's lots of planning and baking and merriment to be had... you know how that goes!

I'll be dropping in with a few posts here and there, but it won't be my normal posting schedule. Which brings me to my time saving tip for the day:

Never feel guilty for setting priorities by cutting out unnecessary items to make time to enjoy the most important things!

You know what really matters to you. Sometimes you just need to take a moment to sit back and reflect on what is most important - especially when your schedule feels overwhelming. Do you feel like you'll be judged or like you're letting someone down? Of course you do. But guess what? You're still doing what is best for your and for your family. 

There will be other kids at that birthday party you committed to. There will be someone else to help with the bake sale. Those emails can go unopened for a few more days. The play date will happen again next week. It's all a matter of perspective and you can sure add hours to your week but simply cutting out the things that are "extras".
