Weekends ~

DSCN5080

I love the weekends.  It is a time that David gets to be home with the kids and me. 

We spend time together as a  Family.

Not too long ago though, weekends made me tense and uptight.  We were too busy.   We had no time together except in passing and so David & I made the decision to slow down and spend time Together.

In order to reclaim this time together, I have to work extra hard during the week especially on Friday.  Actually, we all have to work together as a family in order to make time to be still and enjoy each other.  We’ve also had to learn to say no.  That is a hard one for us but we are learning that we can not do it all.  (But that’s a whole post in itself.) So for the past few weeks, I’ve tried to make sure that I’ve got the housework  & laundry as close to done as possible before I go to bed on Friday night.  By doing this, we’ve been able to spend our Saturdays together with an errand or two here and there if needed.   For the most part though, we have been able to work alongside together at our home or even just relax, play, laugh, and connect

This weekend, we are enjoying a special treat that I’ll share this coming week when we have pictures too.

I’ve seen this on other blogs and I love it so I’m going to borrow it:

Weekends are for…
