At times there seem to be large fences ahead of us, but when we can see what is ahead of us, over the barrier, we either find away under, through or over the barrier in front of us. Or we can always turn around and go back to where we came from.
My fence lately? Time. Prioritizing. I have so much to say, so much to share yet a lot of stretching of my schedule.
First comes my family and more time with them has been my priority. And it has worked. I have learned a happy mom makes a happy family. But also kids are happier when the mama has a routine and more set schedule. Thus my sharing here has been less and limited but my family has flourished.
It’s been seven years to the date this week that Nathan and I met. It is our modern day fairy tale with plenty of twists and turns. It is also five years ago this month that we made the plunge to the prairie. Nathan left behind the corporate perks and pay for his family’s business. We did it for our family and never looked back with regret.
Have we had some follies along the way? Absolutely.
Just trying to take a family picture is a folly much less wading through life’s many changes we have had and continue to experience.
But facing fences and follies with my family is the only way I can take on the next fence life may bring.
