Happy 2011!

Where has the time gone?
My goal to read 2 books a month fizzled out around October. Seemed the closer I got to having Titus the less time I had. This year I will try again. I must say things have been absolutely crazy since my Mom left. Eric finished up his semester of school. This time he was actually going to class two nights a week. We are thankful it is over and this semester his class will be online. I think dealing with PPD(postpartum depression) just adds to the stress that is my life. Thankfully God never gives more than I can handle. I have questioned him a time or two on that one, ok a lot more than a time or two.
We are a family of 7 now and most days I am the care taker of 5 children 5 and younger. Some how this year I must find the balance of my walk with Christ, healthy mind and body, laundry, cleaning, budgeting, shopping, business, relationships and many more things. I look at my list and find it quite overwhelming so I am TRYING to take it one day at a time which is hard for me because I usually jump in full speed and burn out pretty fast. January goals will be focused on three things my spiritual walk(devotions), my cooking(meal planning again), and my physical activity(exercise). Oh yeah cutting back on coffee too. I welcome any encouragement to help spur me on, your prayers are appreciated as well.
