Happiness is: getting out of the house

I'm struggling at the moment to balance my life. I love being mom. I love the challenges that come with it. I love hanging out with naomi all the time. I love promoting adoption and working with FSA (Families supporting adoption), but I'm really overwhelmed with everything that needs to be done for our regional conference in August. I love my work... but am currently carrying too heavy a load and feel guilty when I'm not working because I'm getting further behind... and feel guilty when I am working extra hours because I'm not being mom. The solution: GET OUT OF THE HOUSE! Mark's method... ignore it and maybe it'll go away ;)

So, we enjoyed wandering through campus, swinging on the park swing, and having dinner and playtime with Audrey and Hannah. lovely afternoon... once we got out of the house.
