Morning Routine

Are your mornings crazy?  Does your child's teacher jot you a note letting you know your son hasn't brought his workbook from home all week?  Do you habitually forget things?  Working full time as a wife and/or mother is truly difficult.  There are so many things to juggle.  Even if you are a stay-at-home homemaker, there is often more to juggle because of involvement with volunteerism. 

I have found that routines save me, most days, from being crazy in the mornings.  Before bed, I lay out my clothing for the next work day and pack up my bookbag.  My purse and keys are ready to go as well.  Taking a 5 - 10 minute walk through the house, picking up things and putting them in their spots lets me wake up to a neat home.  Making lunches the night before is also handy (that's my goal...not there yet.)  Routines can definitely simplify your life.  Try to make them a habit.
