The Story of my life........

The most profound lesson of motherhood has been making peace with 'good enough.' No matter how hard you try, there's going to be a corner of the house that stays cluttered, a deadline that gets missed, laundry that stays in the dryer for days. It took me 35 years, and one little girl to finally figure out that I'll never be perfect ---and that, at least for now, is perfectly okay.

what little girl? did i miss something? i have a habit of saying "that's good enough" to myself wheni don't finish something or don't do my best . . . but i get what you are saying. it is so true - a woman's work is never done. so we must enjoy the moment. love mom

What have we been up to?
