Being a taxi service totally counts!

THing I’m tackling this week is the HUGE pile of laundry that was apparently hiding in my house and jumped out at me!

Good Luck, well done and God bless to everyone here

It totally counts as a tackle. I’m glad we moved to an area with busing. It’s made my life MUCH easier except for those days we juggle after school activities! That’s another nightmare!!!

Oh I am so thankful for our school bus! Right now I have to take Becca to preschool, and that’s plenty of driving just in itself. I am very glad not to have to take Abby and Hannah to and from school too.

Tacking a sick child here – guess ’tis the season, lol.

Thank you for hosting this carnival, it’s my first time participating!

I think the main thing I tackled this week was just getting this post up . . .

Best,

So sorry that I made an error with my html on the first try. The second one is correct.

My boys are grown now but I well remember those days. Try to use them to build strong communication (when you can) with your kiddos. They tend to let their guard down when they are in the car and will talk more freely because they don’t have to look at you in the eye. Also keep a stash of good music to listen to when you are by yourself and need a boast. I carried wonderful Christian music to inspire me and restore my soul. I also kept sermons to listen too to “redeem the time” while I was on the road.

Like all things connected with raising children, this too will pass!! But it is a busy and tiring season of life-no doubt. Blessings as you train up your flock in the way they should go!

Taxi drivers are very important – especially when there’s marching band rehearsal, soccer practice, ballet recitals, volunteer work, and grocery shopping to do!!! Have a great day!

and treat yourself to a drive-through cappuccino!

Here is my tackle post!

Shuffling kids about is a tackle indeed! Especially when it involves multiple car seats!!

Hey, driving kids all over the place is a HUGE tackle. That is so exhausting. Hope you can hire a driver or a maid–shouldn’t have to do both!

I am working on a sewing project that uses scrap fabric/ recycled clothing and am designing my own pattern. Haven’t completed the pattern publishing yet, but hoping to soon.
