Ever feel like you need a break? Like there's not enough room in your home for all the kids and the noise level is always more than you can bear? I don't usually feel this way, but the last week has been, well, noisy. We have 4 children in a very tiny house. We have 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom. Which really isn't that bad - most days.
We have been working on taking summer clothes out to the garage and bringing in winter clothes. Something that was always fun before, but we barley have room for the summer clothes, when you try to rearrange and bring in double the clothes just to turn around and take the other half out. It was just a bit confusing and stressful.
So, I decided that I'm probably not the only one who's stressed out over it all. We probably ALL need a break. So, we pulled out the nail polish, the Aloe Vera gel {we use aloe in place of lotions} and the fuzzy socks. And don't forget the hot chocolate! We did facials and nails and hair... Ooo-la-laa! You can't beat a new makeover!
At the end we were all getting along and having fun again! Sometimes you just need a little reminder that you actually love and enjoy being with these people you're forced to live with and trip over day in and day out. Sometimes you have to put the work aside and pull out the fun... The work will still be there and it's so much easier to get it done when you feel refreshed and able to work together again! I love my girls!
