And, sometimes (most of the time), I feel like I need a higher dosage! And beyond that I have to ask God to please help me. I also try to remember how blessed I am to have all of these children. And, how the bible says that a house that is full of children is a blessed house. And, I really get a grip when, I watch a show about women desperately trying anything to have children. And, I've been blessed with four! However, mothering is a hard job and we need a break like everyone else. Unfortunately, we don't get a week of vacation after a year on the job!
