My April, May, June and July have been insane on many different levels and I'm so ready to just breathe. I need to make it to August 14th, but right now that even seems impossible! There is much to be done and I can't seem to do any of it!

I felt like a horrible mom for taking my child one appointment after another and not doing anything fun with her today. We didn't have time and that kills me. My goal is that even if we have to cancel a therapy sometimes we need to do fun stuff. <br /><br />Thanks for sharing this Colleen.
