Lani replied to Details and FairyTales's discussion How do you find the time?"I always feel like I don't do anything well as a mother, wife, and professional! I feel spread too thin just like everyone else! So what do I sacrifice? When my kids were toddlers, everything got sacrificed except for…"

A great mystery to me is 'how do other Mom's find the time to do everything they have to do'. I know why we make those sacrifices. I also know we will not stop doing it. Everyone, however, makes different sacrifices and different areas of our lives are left on the back burner so to speak, in order to do the other things we feel must be done.

My main wish is that every child is completely happy and loved. Secondly, they should all have Cute and Trendy things that will make them (and Mom) look and feel wonderful!
